Midsummer bonfire cruise

Experience the "Slinningsbålet" Bonfire from the Sea

Join us for a magical summer evening on the fjord and witness one of Norway’s most spectacular traditions — Slinningsbålet, the world’s tallest midsummer bonfire! On June 21st, we offer two different fjord cruises so you can enjoy this unforgettable event from the best possible viewpoint: the water.

Every year, locals in Ålesund gather to build an enormous wooden bonfire on a coastal headland called Slinningen — a towering structure that can reach over 40 meters high. As the fire is lit, it creates a dramatic and awe-inspiring display against the backdrop of the Nordic summer night.
