Description

Hornbecker Lens, Blanko Noir Film, No Flash

The Eiksund tunnel (Norwegian: Eiksundtunnellen) is an undersea tunnel between the municipalities of Ørsta and Ulstein in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. The Eiksund Bridge joins Hareidlandet island and the village of Eiksund with the nearby island Eika. The Eiksund Tunnel begins at the south end of the bridge (on Eika island) and connects it to mainland Norway. The bridge-tunnel complex serves the municipalities of Herøy, Sande, Ulstein, Hareid, Ørsta, and Volda which together have over 40,000 inhabitants.

The tunnel is 7,765 metres (25,476 ft) long and reaches a depth of 287 metres (942 ft), which makes it the deepest undersea tunnel of its kind in the world.

This is our entrance and exit when exploring the islands. The blue line marks where the tunnel passes below sea level.
