View from Aksla

Your tour begins with a visit to the enchanting town of Ålesund, known for its Art Nouveau architecture and picturesque setting on five islands. You'll stroll across the bridges of the city's small bays and ascend to the Aksla viewpoint where you can look out over the city and the surrounding mountains.

Next, continue your journey into the realm of Trolls. You will drive along the picturesque coastline of Storfjorden, stop at Gudbrandsjuvet ravine with its beautiful waterfalls and head straight to the famous Trollstigen mountain road. You will have the opportunity to take short walks to the viewpoints along Trollstigen with its famous waterfalls and, if time permits, even hike part of the way along the Troll Ladder on foot.

Arrival in the fjord-side town of Åndalsnes at the foot of the mountain with the Troll Ladder.
You have the option to take the cable car to the top of Mount Nesaksla, 708 meters above sea level. Here, you will be greeted with a 360-degree panoramic view of the Romsdal mountains, the center of Åndalsnes, lush fertile valleys, and the emerald waters of the Rauma River. There is a good restaurant for lunch on the mountain.

If you wish, you can take a short hike directly from the mountain top to the Rampestreken viewpoint (20 min each way).

After a short lunch break, continue your trip to the highest vertical cliff in Northern Europe "The Troll Wall". You will also see the emerald waters of the Rauma River and take a walk by the waterfall near the famous Kylling Bridge ("Chicken Bridge"). The bridge is suspended 60 metres above the emerald-green River Rauma.

Return to Ålesund via the scenic strawberry valley of Valldal, where you can taste sweet Norwegian strawberries with their unique flavor, thanks to Norway’s white nights and almost round-the-clock summer sunshine.
Sights

Famous for its Art Nouveau architecture, Ålesund is the cultural centre of the Sunnmøre region. A devastating fire in 1904 left much of Ålesund in ashes. The rebuilding resulted in a city that contains some of Europe's best examples of Art Nouveau architecture.

One of the most famous Norwegian Scenic Routes, Trollstigen, 'The Troll Ladder', is a visual masterpiece. Trollstigen includes 11 steep bends and rises to a height of 850 metres above sea level. At the top of Trollstigen platform, there are several viewpoints with spectacular views of the Stigfossen waterfall.

The impressive Trollveggen, 'The Troll Wall', has Europe's highest vertical drop, around 1,000 metres. It's part of the Trolltindane range, 'the Troll Peaks', in Romsdalen valley in Fjord Norway. The world famous Rauma railway passes right by!

The Romsdalen Valley is a picturesque valley surrounded by high mountains and rushing rivers.
