Hjørundfjord
From Ålesund the trip goes through the breath taking Hjørundfjord to Øye, continuing by bus through the wild and beautiful Norangdalen to Hellesylt. The Hjørundfjord area is a well known for mountaineering, climbing and skiing. Øye is also the starting point for the hike up to the summit of Slogen (1,564m above sea level), perhaps Sunnmøre’s most beautiful peak. The trip makes an excellent day-trip.



From the top you have a fantastic view of the surrounding mountain peaks and lush green valleys, stretching down to the magnificent fjord.

In 1989 the hotel was completely restored to its original condition from 1891, and today presents all the splendour of it's heyday. Enjoy our 27 rooms and historic lounges including a wonderful dining room.
