View from Varden over Moldefjorden

Highlight • Viewpoint

Of course we walked up, buses and taxis go up there🥴 but I can understand that with the view, it's of course a highlight for non-hikers too.
The restaurant was closed precisely because of a bus load.

The Romsdal Museum, founded in 1912, is one of Norway's largest and most important folk museums. It is idyllically situated in a park on the outskirts of Molde and tells the story of the Romsdal region in a striking way.

September 10, 2025,Molde: vom Hafen zum Varden

There is a mistake at the end of the tour, it was actually 400hm and not 700

Steady climb to the various viewpoints.
For those who are less fit, there is a bus service up.

Bus up but walked back, visiting Romsdal Museum. In which you can go directly into old houses and see everything. We recommend.

Small summit tour in top weather. Beautiful forest paths, the stretch of road after the long lookout is not great with busy bus traffic, but then it goes back to Molde on a narrow path along the stream.
