Odda: Trolltunga Hike & Overnight Stay in Sunset/Sunrise Dome

Experience a true, out-of-the-ordinary adventure. Hike to the Trolltunga plateau and enjoy a sunset overlooking the iconic Trolltunga mountain formations. Dine amidst breathtaking views and enjoy the comforts of your dome as you take in the unique ambiance of this Norwegian mountain plateau.

Your dome is fitted with comfortable amenities and features a see-through ceiling, providing an immersive natural experience. The camp is a short walk from the main trail, offering an off-the-beaten-path retreat.

Our adventure begins at the Trolltunga Active base, located at P2 parking in Skjeggedal. Here, we’ll ensure you’re well-prepared for the exciting journey ahead.

No need to rush! Our tour is all about savoring the moment. As we hike through the landscape, take in the amazing views around you: mountain lakes, steep rock faces in the Ringedalen valley, and the distant Folgefonna glacier. Along the way, we’ll make brief stops to recharge and learn about the area.

About 3 kilometers before Trolltunga, we’ll pause at our campsite. Here, you can enjoy a cup of hot or cold beverages and some snacks. We’re almost ready for the final stretch.

Arriving at the iconic “Troll’s Tongue”, most other hikers will be on their way down and so we’ll have the privilege of experiencing this remarkable place without the usual crowds. Capture photos, explore the surroundings, and simply revel in the moment. A

lthough Norwegian summer days seem endless, we’ll eventually return to our cozy dome for a delicious dinner. The evening is yours to enjoy. Engage in conversations, play games, read Norwegian stories, or marvel at the changing colors of the sky.

After a restful night in the dome, wake up to a fresh morning. You have two options: embark on a second visit to Trolltunga while your guide prepares breakfast in the tent, or sleep in and wake up to the aroma of freshly brewed coffee.

After breakfast, we’ll pack up and begin our hike back to civilization. Expect to return to the starting point between 2:00 PM and 3:00 PM on the second day.
