Overview
The Garmin BlueChart Trondheim to Tromsø chart is an electronic chart region for compatible Garmin chartplotters, covering the Norway coast between Trondheim and Tromsø.
This coverage is available in two chart families: BlueChart g3 Vision HD (region code VEU053R) and BlueChart g3 (region code HXEU053R). You can get it on a preprogrammed microSD/SD card or as a download that is applied through Garmin Express.
Both chart families support Auto Guidance route suggestions based on your chosen depth and overhead clearance settings, plus tools like depth range shading for up to 10 depth ranges and shallow water shading set to a user-defined depth. The Vision HD versions add satellite imagery overlays, aerial photos in many harbors, and 3D views such as MarinerEye and FishEye on compatible displays.
Key features

- Offered as BlueChart g3 Vision HD (VEU053R) or BlueChart g3 (HXEU053R) to match the chart format your Garmin unit supports
- Auto Guidance suggested routing uses your preferred depth and overhead clearance settings for planning on the plotter

Coverage and use on board
For coastal cruising along Norway, this region is built around the Trondheim to Tromsø run and nearby waters. It includes detailed coverage for places such as Sandnessjoen, Bodo, Vaeroy, Langoya, Narvik, and Vestfjorden, plus select inland lakes shown within the chart region.
If you run in tight coastal areas, depth range shading and shallow water shading help you keep your attention on the depths that matter for your draft. When you are using the Vision HD version on a compatible plotter, satellite overlay and aerial harbor photos are helpful for confirming what you are looking at as you line up an entrance or work into an unfamiliar port.
Compatibility and setup
Card versions require a compatible Garmin chartplotter with a microSD/SD card slot. The card is preprogrammed, so you typically leave it in the plotter while you want access to this coverage.
Download versions are loaded with Garmin Express, which handles chart download and management from a computer. Because chart format and feature support varies by plotter, confirm that your unit supports the BlueChart g3 or BlueChart g3 Vision format before purchase.
Updates and maintenance
A one-time chart update is available for newly purchased BlueChart g3 and g3 Vision charts using Garmin Express after the chart is registered. Start by letting the plotter read the chart, then use Garmin Express to download the update that is available for that chart.
This product is a good match for skippers running a compatible Garmin plotter in Norwegian waters who want Trondheim to Tromsø coverage and prefer having routing aids and depth shading tools available on-screen while underway.
