Overview

Upon arrival in Ålesund cruise terminal, meet your guide and settle into your comfortable coach for a day exploring Trollstigen, the Land of the Trolls. Your first stop will be the old Skodje Bridge, around 15 minutes away, where you can enjoy a short walk. There will be a few more stops for fjord and river gorge views, and a small Norwegian-style lunch, before arriving at Trollstigen.

You’ll spend the majority of your time at the viewpoints overlooking Trollstigen. You’ll get great views and photos of the impressive mountain pass’ 11 twisting hairpin bends that travel up the Romsdalen valley, as well as the surrounding mountains and waterfalls.

After a final stop for views, snacks, and souvenirs at Trollstigen Gjestegård, it’s back on the coach for the journey back to Ålesund cruise terminal.

    5. Our first stop is Kokarsteinen

    A place where travelers had to stop for some food or a rest or seeking shelter in the old days.

    Look for the stone construction.

    Restrooms available when open cafeteria, NOK 10 per guest.

    10 minutes
  • 10. ViewPoint by the sea On our way to ViewPoint by the sea, we pass the old Rose Church in Stordal. Built in year 1789. Another fantastic ViewPoint close to Liabygda. Down to the left, you can see a salmon fishfarm, to the right, we see the town Stranda where the Grandiosa pizza-factory is located. Across the fjord, we see the fjord going to Geiranger and Hellesylt. Up on the mountain to the left, you can see the mountain farm Skrednakken. This is the farm our Norwegian Queen Sonja visited some years ago. Don't forget to take some nice photos.

    10 minutes
  • Gudbrandsjuvet

    20. Gudbrandsjuvet is a river gorge in the river Valldøla. The watery river flows between gorges and cracks in the mountain and meets from rather unexpected angles, before it flows under the bridge and plunges further down the valley. The gully is partly formed by several large potholes. The water feature is a tourist attraction, and platforms and bridges have been built in a mixture of glass and rust-corroded iron in both walls and floors. Here is a cafeteria and also free toilets available. You must try their Salmon baguette. So good !

    20 minutes
  • Gudbrandsjuvet

    25. The old bridge by Krikebrua Mother Nature ! I think this is one of the most fantastic stop on our trip. We stop on a small place with a free toilet and some benches for rest. Then we hike together about 3 to 4 minutes on the other side of the road. There we will see an old bridge (built in 1891) and a gorgeous waterfall and river above. The bridge is built of rocks only in 1891. No concrete or steel inside the construction. Please use the bins in the bus for your garbage.
