A sunny day at Trolltunga ☀️☀️☀️ Remember sunglasses, sun protection, waterproof hiking boots and poles.

The snow is melting fast, but there is still snow along most of the trail to Trolltunga (70 % from P3 Mågelitopp).

NB! We are now changing from winter to summer trail and it is important to follow the sticks in the melting period – the winter trail crosses many lakes. It is dangerous to go outside the marked trail. This particularly applies to the last 1.3 km to Trolltunga.

DANGER! Don't walk on the snow at the edge of the Trolltunga Plateau. The snow can break!

The Skjeggedalsvegen road is now open!

En nydelig dag på Trolltunga! ☀️☀️☀️ Husk solbriller og solkrem, gode fjellstøvler og staver!

Snøen smelter raskt, men det er fortsatt snø langs mesteparten av stien til Trolltunga (70 % fra P3 Mågelitopp).

NB! Det er viktig å følge stikkene. Vi skifter nå fra vinter- til sommersti. Det er farlig å gå utenom merket sti, dette gjelder særlig de siste 1,3 km inn til Trolltunga.

FARE! Ikke gå på snøskavlen som er på kanten av Trolltungaplatået. Den kan brekke.

Skjeggedalsvegen er nå åpen som normalt.

TROLLTUNGA

Norway’s most spectacular rock formation

Trolltunga is one of the most scenic and spectacular cliffs in Norway, hovering 700 metres above Ringedalsvatnet lake. Situated at the western edge of the Hardangervidda plateau, near the town of Odda, Trolltunga was carved by the icecap that once covered most of Scandinavia.

The hike through high-mountain terrain up to Trolltunga (1180 m) is long and demanding, but you are rewarded with magnificent views.

From the main trailhead at P2 in Skjeggedal, the round-trip hike is 27 km with an ascent of almost 800 metres. The estimated hiking time is 8–12 hours.

There is an additional trailhead at P3 Mågelitopp. The round-trip hike from P3 Mågelitopp is 20 km with an ascent of about 320 metres. The estimated hiking time is 7–10 hours.

Hikers need to be properly equipped and in good shape.

Please bring back all your litter. Including used toilet paper

~~ Cestovatelský čtvrtek ~~

Muž na hraně "trolího jazyka" hledí do mlhy husté tak, že by se dala krájet. Trolltunga, jedna z nejznámějších vyhlídek Norska. Fotografie dojmem pusté divočiny místu lichotí, lidí tu potkáte dost a dost, patrně vcelku bez ohledu na počasí a denní dobu.
