Kristiansund Airport, Kvernberget — Kvernberget, Norway

Kristiansund Airport, Kvernberget serves the coastal town of Kristiansund in Norway's Møre og Romsdal county, set among the islands and fjords of the country's northwestern seaboard. At an elevation of about 204 feet, it has a single asphalt runway near 7,841 feet, giving this maritime community air links to Oslo, Bergen, and other Norwegian cities. Kristiansund is a historic fishing and coastal town, and like much of western Norway, it relies on aviation to overcome a landscape fractured by water and mountains. The KSU code identifies this field, an important connection for a part of the Norwegian coast where flying often proves faster than the ferry-and-road journeys the terrain demands.
