The Trollstigen Mountain Road

The Trollstigen Mountain Road is one of Norway's most dramatic and most visited attractions.

The mountains which encircle the Trollstigen Mountain Road, which lies in the heart of Romsdal, are enormous. Names like Kongen (the King), Dronningen (the Queen) and Bispen (the Bishop) confirm their majesty in this mountain world.
