Idun’s guide to Trondheim
Sightseeing
Ladestien is a broad walking track that strolls along the Trondheimsfjord around the entire Lade Peninsula. The track is accessible from Persaunet.
The track is about 14 kilometres (8.7 mi) long. The western part of the track starts at Korsvika, about 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) east of the center of Trondheim, and follows the fjord. The western part climbs small hilltops, with a beautiful view of the Trondheimsfjord. The eastern part is almost flat.
There is lush vegetation along the track, with birch, pine, spruce, rowan, alder, and hazel. At Rotvoll is the Leangen Manor, including an English-inspired garden, with small water ponds and large deciduous trees.
There are several beaches (mainly rocky or with pebbles) along Ladestien, some of the most popular are Ringvebukta (not far from Ringve Museum and botanical garden) and Djupvika; the latter includes a large lawn and volleyball net. Swimming in the fjord is indeed refreshing, although a water temperature of 18 °C (64 °F) to 21 °C (70 °F) is fairly common.

To get a nice overview of the city, take a walk to the viewpoint at Kuhaugen, close to Persaunet. Here you can see the fjord, the nearby mountains, and most of the city center.

Ringve botanical garden and music museum is well worth the visit. The plants in the botanical garden are living collections used for research, educational purposes, and conservation of endangered species. Here you can enjoy part of the world`s great botanical diversity and learn more about it. The garden is around 32 acres and opened as part of the university in 1973.
Stroll through the garden, visit the excellent music museum and have lunch in their lovely cafe. Ringve Museum is Norway's national museum for music and musical instruments, with collections from all over the world. Take a look by yourself, or enjoy the company of one of their wonderful hosts.
