Japanese translation:スカルネス
Explanation:
I don't know Norwegian, but using these resources:

Audio Pronunciation: http://ja.forvo.com/word/skarnes/
Pronunciation Guide: http://suite101.com/article/how-to-pronounce-norwegian-words...

I think that スカルネス would work. スカーネス may also work, but Skaanes is also written as スカーネス, so to avoid any confusion スカルネス is probably the best choice.
