Garten is a populated island in the municipality of Ørland in Sør-Trøndelag county, Norway. The island is located in the Trondheimsfjord, just southwest of the mainland. The 1.5-square-kilometre (370-acre) island lies about 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) southeast of the island of Storfosna. The main population center on the island is also refered to as the village of Garten.

There is a bridge to the mainland as well as car ferry connections to Storfosna (also in Ørland) and also to the island of Leksa (in Agdenes) and to the mainland of Agdenes.[1]
