Overview

Experience the Land of Trolls with our 6 hour sightseeing tour to Trollstigen.

The bus will take you from Ålesund, through charming norwegian villages to the Land of Trolls. First stop will be at Kokarsteinen placed just above the fiord. We will pass by Sjoholt village known for the furniture and wood industry and Valldal – famous for tasty strawberries.
Next stop will be at Gubrandsjuvet. It’s a 5 meters narrow and 20 – 25 meters high ravine where can take a bridge and walk over it. After that, the bus will drive you to the Trollstigen so you can enjoy the majestic view of natural landscape and fantastic mountain road with eleven hairpin turns. While driving down the road, we will take an extra photo stop at Stigefossen – the powerful waterfall with a total height of 240 meters. Last stop will be at Trollvegen (Troll Wall) which is Europe’s tallest vertical rock face. From here the bus will drive you through Åndalsnes back to Ålesund.
