From here there are several viepoints overlooking the busy harbour of Kristiansand. It's a nice insight into the city's maritime activity.

One of the most important ferry routes in southern Norway connects Kristiansand with Hirtshals in Denmark. The Color Line shipping company has been using the SuperSpeed 1 ferry on this route since 2008 with two daily trips in each direction, which replaces the Christian IV and the high-speed ferry Silvia Ana. The shipping company Fjord Line also runs between Hirtshals and Kristiansand, but only in the summer months (April to September), then also with two daily trips in each direction. The Fjord Cat catamaran ferry is the fastest ferry connection to Norway at just 2 hours and 15 minutes. Since April 7, 2022, the shipping company Holland Norway Lines has been operating the RoPax ferry Romantika with three trips a week in each direction between Eemshaven in the Netherlands and Kristiansand.

Goes very comfortably at 130m above sea level and very nice, solid bike path.

From here you can look at Kristiansands ferry port. The ferry will transfer to the northern tip of Denmark in just 2 hours and 15 minutes. For a small extra charge, you can also take the bike quite easily.
