Ålesund (pop. ~44,000) with its’ unique concentration of Art Nouveau architecture in a coastal location in proximity to breath taking mountains will leave you in awe. Gjøvik (pop. ~20,000) located next to Mjøsa, Norway’s largest lake with a depth of 453 m, offers more than 1,500 km of prepared ski trails, a 100 km network of floodlit trails and the Gjøvik Ølympic Hall.
