How do we get to Vikinggarden?

Vikinggarden at Avaldsnes is located on a small island about 20 minutes' walk from the parking lot at St. Olav's Church at Avaldsnes. You'll walk through a historic landscape with traces of the past. It is also possible to get to Vikinggarden by boat. The boat trip goes via the narrow Karmsundet - Nordvegen - the shipping lane that has given Norway its name.
