'Landscape & Local Story'

 

Trolltunga 📍, or “the Troll’s Tongue,” is one of Norway’s most dramatic and iconic rock formations. Jutting out horizontally about 700 meters above Lake Ringedalsvatnet, it offers one of the most spectacular viewpoints in Scandinavia. Reached only by a demanding hike of around 10–12 hours round trip, the journey to Trolltunga takes adventurers through alpine plateaus, rivers, and snow patches before culminating in the dizzying panorama at the cliff’s edge. Standing on the narrow tongue of rock, with fjords and mountains stretching endlessly beyond, is both exhilarating and humbling, a true highlight of Norway’s natural wonders.

'...Local legend explains the name: trolls, according to folklore, turn to stone if caught by the sun.
