Day 15 *20.07.2023

Publisert: 20.07.2023

Today we started a little earlier because the weather forecast initially showed rain in Kristiansund from 3pm. So we agreed on breakfast at 7am the night before. At 7:15am, everyone sat at the table. It was 9:30am by the time everything was packed and we started. The direct route from Trondheim to Kristiansund requires two ferries. Both times went smoothly without long waits. The second ferry was very quiet and modern, already an electric ferry. We were able to stay in the car for both ferries. Upon arriving in Kristiansund, we first looked for the Vedum lookout tower, which used to serve as a guard post, 78m above sea level. There you have a great view of Kristiansund, as well as the fishing islands Grip and Smøla. Then we drove to the center of Kristiansund. There, you can take a 20-minute passenger ferry ride to the four small islands of Kristiansund. Surprisingly, it's all free!

Four main islands and several small islands make up the city area of Kristiansund. Back at the car, we were greeted by a parking ticket. 😒 At first, we didn't understand why, because we had purchased a parking ticket. For 5 hours at 98 NOK with MasterCard. However, with the help of Google Translate, we found out that the transaction was not successful and the parking ticket was therefore invalid. But it still came out printed, only at the bottom there was a note in Norwegian... Annoying! Now parking there costs 640 NOK 😮‍💨😕

We then continued through the 5 km long and 250 m deep Atlantic Tunnel towards Bud. This route is also supposed to take us on the Atlantic Road. The Atlantic Road is a section of the National Road 64 between Molde and Kristiansund. Specifically, the Atlantic Road covers an 8,274 m long section. Its course with eight bridges over several small islands is a tourist attraction. Since the road is located right at the exit of a fjord, there are powerful currents between the individual small islands during tides, which is not entirely safe for anglers. Construction began on August 1, 1983, and it was opened on July 7, 1989. The construction cost 122 million Norwegian kroner, which is why it was subject to tolls for ten years. We crossed the road once, then again, and then went back over the road to the campsite in Bud. Beautifully located, top sanitary facilities, electricity, Wi-Fi, showers, washing machine, dryer, etc. all included, great place!

And... a day completely without rain is behind us. 😌
