Trollstigen Resort

The Northern Fjords


Recognisable by the strapping wooden troll at its entrance, this well-kept campsite is 2km along the Rv63 highway from Åndalsnes, direction Geiranger. The welcome's warm and the location, overlooking the River Rauma and embraced by mountains, is scenic and peaceful. All but one of the cabins have bathrooms and the two-bedders are smartly renovated. Open year-round, it's popular with skiers in winter.
