Wikipedia description:
Nes is a peninsula in Ringsaker Municipality in Innlandet county, Norway. Some of the larger settlements on the peninsula include Stavsjø and Tingnes. A bridge from the peninsula connects to the island of Helgøya to the south. The peninsula lies east of Gjøvik, south of Lillehammer and Moelv, and west of Hamar and Brumunddal, centrally located between several towns on the lake. Agriculture is the dominant industry on the peninsula. Fruit growing was previously significant, but has declined, but berry growing is still important. In recent years, various forms of farm tourism and further processing of farm products have expanded the income base on many farms.
