Quick Transfer Time
Trondheim is a lively locals' and university hub with a laid-back, friendly buzz, and well worth an extra night or two if you're skiing in Åre and Oppdal.
With colourful wooden buildings, a strong cycling culture and a delicious food scene, a day or two here is an easy decision. Wander the waterside streets among wooden warehouses, dig into Trondheim's Viking history as Norway's third-largest city, or just find a cosy café and watch the world go by.
Heritage and quirkiness sit side by side here, from Rockheim, Norway's national museum of popular music, to Nidaros Cathedral, the world's northernmost Gothic cathedral and where Norway's kings and queens have been consecrated for centuries.
Getting here is simple too: frequent public transport, including trains and buses, connects Trondheim to the airport, so adding a stop in the city is easy for those travelling to Åre in Sweden or Oppdal in central Norway.

Attractions
- Nidaros Cathedral - Dating back to 1070 this is northernmost medieval cathedral in the world. The coronation place of Norwegian Kings and Queens right through to the present day.
- Gamle Bybro - The old town bridge connecting the centre with Bakklandet (Trondheim's old quarter) and is one of the city's must see landmarks. A great spot to view the multi-coloured wooden wharf buildings lining the river Nidelva. This is a popular bar and restaurant area.
- Trampe Bicycle Lift - The world's first and only dedicated bicycle lift. The lift runs up a steep hill from Brubakken (near Gamle Bybro bridge) to Kristiansen Fort.
- Kristiansten Fort - The perfect vantage point to enjoy panoramas of the city. Rebuilt after the great fire of 1681.
