The lovely agricultural community of Gjemnes Norway lies right between Molde and Kristiansund in Møre & Romsdal. Here where the fjords meet, the highway E-39 crosses over the imposing suspension and pontoon bridges of the Krifast road project. Gjemnes has rich traditions of culture and handcrafts, and there are several small living villages, each with its own characteristic style, spread along the fjords and in the valleys and all the way up into the mountains. Gjemnes municipality has approximately 2.640 inhabitants and covers a area of 382,2 km2.

The largest community, Batnfjordsøra, is a service centre for the area and the main industries lie here as well as in Torvikbukt and Angvik. One of the region’s largest dairies lies at Høgset. The fjord basin is known to be rich in fish, and is therefore a popular vaction area.
