The list of tops in Sunndal kommune is impressive, also in Norwegian scale. There are 41 tops (blue icons) exceeding 1600m elevation and 97 tops (blue and green) exceeding 1000m elevation.

Interestingly enough, the tops along Sunndalen valley get higher towards the valley head. Normally, the valley peaks get higher, the further into the country you get. That said, the Driva river runs down Sunndalen, towards the fjords, just like large rivers do.

Innerdalstårnet is perhaps the most characteristic peak in Sunndal. While the mountain is popular amongst climbers, climbing is not required in order to reach the top. Innerdalstårnet is often mentioned along with classic Norwegian mountains, such as Romsdalshorn, Stetind and Store Skagastølstind.

Petter Bjørstad has some good trip reports from some of the Sunndal mountains, and more will be added over time.

As there are hardly any Økonomisk Kartverk maps for this region, most primary factors are based upon interpolation between 20m contours.

A considerable number of tops are unnamed on the maps. Names on this list have been given based on its location in comparison to the nearest prominent mountain. For instance, "Ø. Somrungnebba S-1" means that the top is located south of Ø. Somrungnebba, and it is the first top along the ridge.
