View of Ålesund from Aksla

Highlight • Viewpoint

Kniven is a viewpoint on Mount Aksla in the Norwegian city of Ålesund.

2017

North-east just above the Fjellstua viewpoint, Kniven is at an altitude of about 157 meters and offers a wide view over Ålesund and the surrounding fjord landscape. A wind vane was erected here between 1861 and 1863, which is called Kniven (German knife) because of its appearance. The Kristofer Randers Monument is located slightly below the vantage point.

Ålesund

Highlight • Settlement

The port city is located on Norway's west coast.

Ålesund is notable for its Art Nouveau architecture. After a major fire in 1904, it was almost completely rebuilt, using this distinctive architectural style. This makes the city one of the most attractive in the country. Ålesund stretches across several islands connected by bridges and tunnels. This creates impressive views of the sea and the surrounding mountains. The viewpoint on the local mountain, Aksla, is famous – from here you can enjoy a magnificent view of the city and the harbor, as well as the Sunnmøre Alps in the distance.

A short trip to the Geirangerfjord is recommended.
