Romsdalseggen ridge is one of the world’s most scenic hikes (Lonely Planet 2011).
This hike through the dramatic landscape features many highlights.
From the ridge, you can see the majestic Trollveggen cliff, surrounded by a number of well-known mountains. Romsdalseggen ridge is one of the most spectacular backdrops in the world, not far from the mountaineering capital Åndalsnes.
Before you go - hiking facts:
-Romsdalseggen ridge is a long (10,3) demanding hike with a 970 meter ascent, which means you have to be in a good shape and used to walking in steep and uneven terrain. It is therefore important that you consider your own fitness and that of others in your party before you set out.
-Some parts of the hike is exposed, and it feels scary to some people. You don’t need climbing equipment, but there are chains bolted in the steepest parts for a better grip. People with a mild degree of fear of heights will, with a good companion to lean on, manage to get through the toughest part of the hike. But you should not choose the normal route if you suffer from a solid fear of heights or lack sufficient hiking experience. The route via Høgnosa is in this case a better option for you.
-The last two kilometeres of the hike (Romsdalstrappa) are quite steep and can be challenging at the end of the hike, especially if you have former knee injuries. Walking sticks can be a good support, especially if wet and slippery.
