Discover romance and the very best Fjord Norway has to offer. Why not join the adventure yourself? Your next romantic getaway could be to Møre og Romsdal.

This year, love and adventure are blooming. Some choose to embrace the dramatic landscapes, while others embrace marriage in the stunning setting of Geiranger. Love, breathtaking views, thundering waterfalls, delicious food, and grand hotels – all make hearts race in this World Heritage village on Norway’s west coast.

Møre og Romsdal is undoubtedly a place of both romance and raw beauty. Or, if you prefer – inner calm and outer wildness. Take the time to experience both, whether it is a weekend for two, a spontaneous road trip through rugged landscapes of fjords and mountains, or the dream date with the one you just might love.

Some places can stir emotions, ignite excitement and make you feel you are moving away from everyday life into something magical. Have you entered a fairytale? Is it love that you are feeling? A romantic hotel or a unique stay could be the doorway to new experiences. How about a weekend for two at Hotel 1904, Hotel Union Geiranger, Union Øye, or the old trading post at Angvik? You can also find inner calm with nature close by, staying in secluded accommodations nestled gently in the fjord landscape.

Landscapes that make your heart sing

It is easy to be spellbound in Møre og Romsdal. Speechless. In love. Drunk on the atmosphere. Enchanted. The landscape is unique – some might even call it otherworldly. Head up to places where you would never imagine people living or running a business, like Skageflå, Romsdalseggen, or Trandal in Hjørundfjorden. See for yourselves as you fall in love with each other and, soon enough, with our region.

Three places to propose

You might not get half the kingdom, but you can experience the Kingdom of Romsdal. Join a hike into a mystical mountain world where the guide knows just the right path to take you safely. The mountains, with their majestic names – Bispen (the Bishop), Kongen (the King), and Dronninga (the Queen) – can be found at the top of Trollstigen (the Troll’s Path).

Breathe out and unwind together

The landscapes and activities may take your breath away. That is why taking a moment to breathe out and fully relax is vital. Be present in the moment, and treat yourself to warm water, an unwinding sauna, and delicious culinary experiences that will create lasting memories.
