Molde panorama

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Molde Panorama is a general term used to describe the famous panoramic view of some 220 partly snow-clad peaks, seen from the city of Molde, Norway. The impressive sight can be enjoyed from all over the city, but perferably from the Varden, a viewpoint on the top of the hill (404 meter above sea level) behind the city.

The mountains, located 15-40 km to the south, south-east and south-west of Molde, often creates a dramatic display of changing colors and contrasts in the shifting light throughout the day, and when reflecting in the Romsdalsfjord.

The panorama has been a celebrated attraction for over 150 years, and has drawn royalty, notabilities and celebrities from all over the world.
