Trondheim

With its colorful warehouses, waterways and wooded hills, Norway’s third-largest city is one of its prettiest. Trondheim, the country’s historic capital, is a pleasure to explore, with wide streets and a partly pedestrianized heart. Great cafes, restaurants & museums compete for attention, while Europe’s northernmost Gothic cathedral doesn’t need to try. Fishing boats putter around the harbor & beyond the city there’s a wealth of wilderness to explore.
