Scenic Trail Run on Godøya Island

Explore this beautiful region on a challenging yet rewarding 12k trail run.

Relax on the scenic drive to the picturesque island of Godøya, stretch your muscles and set off for a run like no other. Together with a small group, follow your local guide uphill to glassy Alnes Lake, a popular fishing spot 650 feet above sea level. By now you’ll be warm and limber, and ready to start your run.

Jog around the edge of the lake and push on up the mountain until you reach the summit, around 1,000 feet higher up. The reward for your hard work is the spellbinding 360° panorama which spans pretty Ålesund, the majestic Sunnmøre Alps and the deep-blue Atlantic Ocean. Spend some time soaking up the views before you head off again. Needless to say, it’s easier on the way back down!
