About
Ferry travel in Trøndelag
Around and across the Trondheimsfjord
The Trondheimsfjord shapes travel across the region, and car ferries provide the crossings that road bridges don't. These are practical, frequent links used daily by locals, run under the region's AtB transport network — our AtB Trøndelag ferry guide explains the ticketing and how the boats tie into the wider public-transport system. Out toward the coast, the islands of Frøya and Hitra — centres of Norway's salmon-farming industry — are tied to the mainland by a mix of tunnels, bridges and ferry and express-boat services.
