Trollstigen was formerly a historic transport passage, but has since become the well known scenic road between Geiranger Fjord and the Trollstigen Plateau. Though it was rebuilt as a tourist route, do not let that knowledge deter you with images of fast food eyesores and tumbleweeds of…]]> hiking-in-trollstigen-skarfjellenden/feed/ 0 30-incredible-hikes-in-norway/ 30-incredible-hikes-in-norway/#respond Sun, 12 Jul 2020 08:45:29 +0000 /?p=2691 When in Norway, there are thousands of hikes to choose from and all are gorgeous and unique in their own way. Depending on how long you’re in the country, you may have to make hard choices about which trekking adventure to pursue.

(I mean you can stop there if you really want to, we won’t judge.) Will and I are not planners. We’re not very organised people. But by God we organised for Trolltunga, and thank sweet baby Jesus we did. The night before, we got all of our kit ready.

I’m sorry every other country you just don’t quite have what Norway has. Towering mountains, fjords, beaches, forests. There is something for everyone when looking for a place to explore, adventure and get utterly lost in. We spent 3 weeks driving around the entirety of southern Norway starting at Oslo.

First you can drive up a small road to a car park which has plenty of space for cars and motorhomes, parking costs 150kr.
