Spranget – Where footsteps from the past meet the fjord's silence
Follow the ancient path that generations walked before the tunnel took over – a 4 km journey through time and nature
On the Spranget trail, you don’t just walk through nature, but through 60 years of Norwegian transport history.
This 4-kilometer round trip follows exactly the same route that people used before the Hindrem tunnel opened in 1963. Here farmers walked to market, children to school, and families visiting between villages – a living connection that bound together communities on both sides of the fjord. The trail is perfect for the whole family with its moderate incline and gentle pace, where even the smallest can follow along without strain. Two hours there and back gives you ample time to pause, breathe in the salty air and let yourself be enchanted by the views that unfold across Trondheimsfjorden.
Here practical history meets nature’s therapeutic power – a walk that heals both body and soul.
The Spranget trail reveals hidden gems along the way: small coves where you can pause for picnics, berry picking in season, and quiet moments where only the fjord’s whisper breaks the silence. This is more than a hike – it’s a meditative journey where each step tells of those who walked here before you, and each view reminds you that the most important experiences are often the simplest. Along the old transport artery, you experience how the landscape has shaped people’s lives for generations, while nature simultaneously gives you the peace that modern life so rarely offers.
