As you explore, you'll pass notable landmarks like the scenic bridge Hellebrua, Apotekertorget square with its famous statues related to the coastal history of Ålesund, and the city's unique shopping and pedestrian street. This tour offers the perfect blend of Ålesund’s rich history and street life, allowing you to experience the hidden charms of this famous town.
