Regions of Norway

Geiranger, Ålesund & the Northwest Fjords

Møre og Romsdal is the home of the icons: the UNESCO-listed Geirangerfjord, the hairpins of the Trollstigen, the wave-battered Atlantic Ocean Road, and the Art Nouveau town of Ålesund. It is the most concentrated stretch of bucket-list driving in the country.
