Trolltunga NORWAY
To those of you who have seen this yourselves in person... it should come as no surprise that when this photo was taken my body was broken and legs were shaking from the long and steep climb to the top, with my 25kg rucksack on my back.
Completely worth the hard work, for this pink, 11pm sunset in July.
Norway was one of the hardest and most amazing experiences of my life!
Oh and just for a laugh, here are some behind the scenes photos of the happiness HAHAHAA
The wind the whole night was insane, although my trusty Hilleberg stood the test... but we for sure were NOT happy campers, especially the next day when we walked back through an insane storm that had us holding onto rocks to stay standing!
Great image and interesting background story! The last time we have been visiting Norway I had no courage to trek with the kids to Trolltunga. Now I can think about it as a wise decision ))
Oh its possible without the backpack, but for sure a long and tiresome day. The locals seemed to take it pretty well though! But I would say if you're not living in that environment it's definitely not the best venture for the family HAHA
It says 9km at the bottom, but turns out they measure the vertical distance and not the foot distance, so it was approx 22km each way - A local later explained it to us when we rolled up to camp at around midnight! oh well it was well worth it looking back, but there were certainly some painful arguments along the way. The happy snaps were a thing of the past on the sleepless return trek.
