1 Best Sight in The Western Fjords, Norway

Kvalvik Fort

One of Kristiansund's most beaten hiking paths is to this well-preserved World War II submarine base and fortress built by German forces. At its height, it housed 5,000 soldiers, who left several bunkers, a battery of artillery guns, and a submarine, all of which are visitable today. Tours and exhibits tell the fort's story. The pristine setting among wooded seaside hills is the second highlight and attracts many locals for fishing and barbecues.
