The Trolltunga road is a single track, private road up the steep Maagelia hillside. It does not take you to the Trolltunga site, only up the first 400 meters ascent. From the parking area on top there is a 4 hour hike in each direction.

 

The road was built to be used by locals, but has a capacity for a limited number of cars extra per day.(30)

 

IF YOU ARRIVE LONG TIME BEFORE OPENING HOURS, PLEASE TURN OFF THE ENGINE IN RESPECT OF NEIGHBORHOOD.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

   

  • Hikers and bikes are welcome

    The road is free to use for pedestrians and pedal bikes. It is an alternative to the hiking path that leads up the hill. Not as picturesque, but easier to walk if your legs are tired, and you don't have stop/step aside to make way for oncoming hikers on the path.

  • Toll road

    The road and parking area on top has a capacity for 30 vehicles each day.

    • The road will close for the day when the limited parking area is filled.
    • The exit gate will open automatically when approached by cars leaving the road.
    • Parking fee: NOK 600,- per day. (The parking fee includes access to use the road)

    Vehicles that are not suiteable for the drive will be denied access to the road by attendants on site.


  • Hairpin bends

    The road has 17 hairpin bends, which requires a skilled driver.
