We had an absolute magical stay at Opplev Runde. The apartment was very light, spacious and clean and the staff was super friendly. 

In the afternoon we went coasteering, which was a real blast! Floating around in the waves, tasting seaweed and jumping off of rocks.. So fun! And I did not feel cold or unsafe for one second. 

In the evening we did a puffin safari with dinner, a documentary and exposition visit included. Our guide Johannes knew so much about all the birds and happily answered all of our questions. The food was great, the company even better and the puffins are just SO cute. 

The hike to the bird cliff was VERY steep at the beginning, but overall really doable. Having a guide with you really adds to the experience, because he helped us find the best spot to see them and we learned so much about the area and all the other birds too.

On our way back to the apartment we saw the most magical sunset with a double rainbow.. Probably the prettiest sight I've ever seen.  

We felt very welcome, did not want to leave and will definitely be back. :)

Magical stay with lots of adventure, wildlife and good food

We rented a flat at Runde for one night, and wish we could have stayed a bit longer. The flat was spacious, clean, and had a wonderful view. A seagull came to watch us through the livingroom vindow, and we enjoyed both the cafe in the visitors centre (great cakes!) and the beaches close by (we had extremely good summer weather). The visitor centre can arrange for boat trips to the bird colonies, and we observed both puffins and Eagles.

Clean, spacious, wonderful

The apartments of the Runde Environmental Centre are modern, well equipped, quiet and - best of all - they offer great views over the Atlantic ocean. The famous bird cliffs of Runde island are only a short walk away. Very recommendable for bird watchers and nature lovers. We enjoyed our stay very much and we definitely want to come back.

Great Accommodation for nature lovers

Runde Island or Bird Island is accessible by boat or car via a bridge.  The island is known  for it bird colonies with hundreds of thousands of pairs nesting every year. It is perhaps the best place to see North Atlantic sea birds in Norway.

The Runde Environmental Centre has wonderful accommodations as part of it overall mission as a research center for birds of the North Atlantic.  The facilities are first rate with large rooms, modern baths including heated floors, fully equipped kitchens, comfortable furniture, etc.  The views from our rooms were spectacular.

There is only one road on the island and it is short.  This is a place for hiking, bird watching, photography, ocean and sky watching.  There is a cafeteria with limited menu and limited hours, no stores, so bring food and drink.  But if you are a birder like quiet, very few people and love nature...this place is for you.  There are day trips by boat from Alesund.  There is also a knowledgeable captain and his boat who tours the island, weather permitting. 

Possibly, an experience not to be missed.  We are not birders but enjoy nature and we will fondly remember our two days here.

Great Stay on Runde Island

I were visiting Runde in 25/6/2016 and stayed here.
The apt is very good, wide and have everything than you can need (glasses, plates, pans, refrigerator and etc). The bathroom is VERY good and clean with Dove liquid soap! :)
We didn't had a good experience with the breakfast, I suggest than you bring yours.
I don't have sure, but sometimes I think maybe have to share the living room//kitchen with others guests because have 2 rooms inside. So I think is better stay alone, like we stayed...
But it worth! 


Good place to stay.

It can be a litle tricky checking in--kind of a ghost town when there is not an event going on in the centre, but once you find someone, they are super helpful and the apartments are great. We were originally given a bottom unit, so we asked for a higher unit and were then given a room on top (better ocean view) and there was noone in the room next door, so we got the kitchen and common area all to ourselves, which was so nice. I recommend asking for a unit all to yourselves if they are available. This place was the most expensive place we stayed on our trip, but it was very clean, modern and lovely and perfect for our Runde hiking, boat trip and general bird watching while there. The rooms are very close to the area where you can hike to the bird cliffs (you could easily walk it, though it is a tad far, we drove) and you can definitely walk to the boat docs for the bird boat tours. I hear the center has food on sight in season, but none while we were there, so we went to Madelynn Coffee in a nearby town (and loved it-highly recommend it).
