Idrettslaget Norna-Salhus is a Norwegian athletics club from Salhus in Åsane, Bergen, founded on 14 October 1935.

The club originally had a football (soccer) section as well, but it split away in 1987 to form Bergen Nord.

Since this split Norna-Salhus gradually rose to prominence in national athletics, especially within the jumping section. Triple jumpers Sigurd Njerve and Ketill Hanstveit established Norwegian records. Other athletes such as decathlete Benjamin Jensen, race walker Kjersti Tysse Plätzer and Mona Holm, Norwegian record holder in the women's hammer throw, has later joined Norna-Salhus.
