Arriving at Trondheim-Værnes.

The airport of Trondheim is called Trondheim-Værnes and is about 40 km
from the centre of the city. Orientation at a medium-sized airport like Værnes is
rather easy.

The airport bus costs NOK 62 and you can pay cash or by credit card on the
bus. The blue white airport buses leave
right in front of the main exit. All buses go to Trondheim and are leave a few minutes after
your arrival.. After a trip of approx. 40 minutes the first stop in the centre of the City
(after crossing a bridge) is Royal Garden. If you are staying at another hotel in the
centre, tell the bus driver which one and he will tell you were to get off. The bus continues to the Student's Society
(near Gløshaugen campus) and stops at Lerkendal (near some of SINTEF's premises).

Taxi from the airport will cost approx. NOK 500. If you pre-book your taxi the night before
or at the latest 4 hours before, there is an "airport taxi" discount system. Here you share a taxi
with others and save at a fixed price of about NOK 250 (ring (+47) 73 90 90 50 or (+47) 73 92 49 04)

We recommend that you stay in one of the following hotel's where we can arrange for your
reservation at special rates (NOK 595 - NOK 750):

Departure
When you depart from Tronheim the airport bus starts at the Lerkendal every quarter
of an hour and stops at the Student's Society, the city square and some of the main hotels downtown.
Ask the hotel reception for the nearest bus stop. As an alternative the reception will also help you to order an
airport taxi (see above) with a fixed price of NOK 200 to 250 . Reservations should be made the night before or at the latest
4 hours before leaving.

NOTE: You should arrive at Værnes airport at the latest 30 minutes before departure.

We wish you a pleasant stay in Trondheim.
