Trondheim Lufthavn
Welcome to the historic heart of Norway! With Trondheim as your starting point, it's easy to reach the historical sites in the region. For example, take a trip to the site where St Olav was killed in the Battle of Stiklestad in 1030, or experience the Munkholmen island, just a short journey from the city centre.
Trøndelag is often regarded as Norway's food bowl. And rightly so! In 2022, we were named a European Food Region, a prestigious seal of approval for food producers in the region. This means that good food experiences are like pearls on a string - all over the county. But we have so much more to offer: Mountain scenery, soft moors and proximity to the dramatic fjord landscapes of north-west Norway. It's also easy to get here.

Trondheim Airport Vaernes
With direct routes to several major European cities, it's easy to visit Trøndelag. If you also consider these as hubs, the region opens up to much of the world. Fly directly from London Gatwick, Riga or Gdansk, or use Amsterdam, Stockholm, Copenhagen or Oslo as hubs for easy access from all over the world.
Trondheim as a base for the coastal route
The region is also an excellent starting point for a round trip on the Coastal Route. Take either a short trip along Western Norway round trip to Bergen, or the longer sailing to Kirkenes and back. If you do, we recommend that you spend some time in Trøndelag before or after your journey. Here you can experience everything from vibrant city life - in a small town, historic sites and buildings - to world-class food.
