Ålesund Norway and the Easy Ålesund Tour Excursion
Norway and Iceland 2019 – Video 12 of 22
Today we visit the Norwegain city of Alesund, which was the scene of a fire on January 23, 1904 that burned down almost the entire town. The city was rebuilt with stone, brick, and mortar in the Art Nouveau architectural style, which is what gives the town its characteristic to this day.

DAY 14 - ALESUND, NORWAY
First time in Alesund and I love it! Little bit rainy today, but trust me this weather is nothing compare to some of the weather in Norway at this time of year. Today was totally spontaneous day and I decided to go up to the view point, walk around this beautiful city and have some good food. I feel truly blessed to pin another city to my memories collection. Enjoy! ????

Ålesund City Train Sightseeing Tour
This is a taste of the what the Ålesund City Train tour is like. On a rainy day it was a good way to get a look at this Norwegian city. It goes up to the hill Fjellstua Viewpoint where it stops for 10 minutes (which we thought was too short). The entire tour was about an hour and 10 minutes. The starting point was easily accessible from the cruise port terminal area.

Vic Stefanu, vstefanu@yahoo.com. Ålesund is a port town on the west coast of Norway, at the entrance to the Geirangerfjord. It’s known for the art nouveau architectural style in which most of the town was rebuilt after a fire in 1904, as documented at the Jugendstilsenteret museum. There are panoramic views of Ålesund’s architecture, the surrounding archipelago and fjords from the Mount Aksla lookout.
Norway is a Scandinavian country encompassing mountains, glaciers and deep coastal fjords. Oslo, the capital, is a city of green spaces and museums. Preserved 9th-century Viking ships are displayed at Oslo’s Viking Ship Museum. Bergen, with colorful wooden houses, is the starting point for cruises to the dramatic Sognefjord. Norway is also known for fishing, hiking and skiing, notably at Lillehammer’s Olympic resort.

ALESUND - NORWAY [ HD ]
Alesund is a major fishing port and the commercial centre of the Sunnmøre district, with picturesque quays that bustle with activity all day long as fish catches are landed, argo shifted and the coastal ferry comes and goes.
This small but perfectly formed fishing port sits on islands connected by bridges in the northern part of Norway’s fjord area, and is an ideal base for exploring this spectacular area of coastal scenery.

Ålesund Cruise Port Terminal & Surrounding Art Nouveau Architecture
After our city train tour of Alesund, we had a chance to walk around the town near the cruise port terminal area when the rain subsided. As you can see some of the Art Nouveau style of the buildings were quite interesting. There was the TINE dairy factory, shopping mall, a supermarket, and of course more nice views of the coast. Then it was back to the port area when our cruise ship, the Norweigan Star, was docked.
Hike across Vidden in Bergen
The tour between Mount Ulriken and Mount Fløyen is one of the most popular tours in Bergen, Norway. You can start and end your trip by taking Ulriken Cable Car or Fløibanen funicular. Between these two beautiful mountains you can see the fjords and islands around Bergen. On a clear day you can enjoy the view to Folgefonna glacier.
The hike takes about 5 hours and can be done the whole year, but we recommend between May and October, unless you are skiing across!

Mountain Hike in Hammerfest
Join us for a mountain hike in the northernmost town in the world! This guided walk passes Hammerfest’s distinctive parish church before heading out of town and up the slopes. You start walking up the “Gammelveien” (Old Way) a hiking path around the mountain Salen. This was the only way into town in earlier days. As you head towards the top, you’ll go through Hammerfest’s only forest, Jansvannskogen. A bid for the mountain’s peak requires a fair amount of fitness but the panoramas are certainly worth it. On a clear day you can enjoy incredible views of the islands Melkøya, Sørøya and Seiland. The route back down to the ship and a well-earned rest comes via the popular zigzag path to the town centre.
