In Norway there are 550 different sized cabins/houses that you can sleep at - some of them are staffed and others not. There you can buy/make food and sleep. These are run by the Norwegian Tourist Association (NTF) - and you can pay a small fee to be a member. If you're a member you can sleep in the cabins cheaper - in addition to several other offers; like cheaper hiking equipment. NTF also keep all the hiking tracks marked and maintained. Perfect for longer hikes - cabin to cabin.

3 hours is not a lot for us Norwegians. In 2017, when I was 13, I went on a 9 hour long hike from 7:00pm-4:00am in Bodø. I was shocked When I checked the time at 2am, because I thought it was 11pm. We all got a little confused by the midnight sun. We were a group of like 7 kids from 10-16 years old. Alone in the mountains. And at 4am we sat up our camp and went to sleep. We got picked up by a bus at 4 or 5 pm

Haha yeah. When I was 12 I had one trip with dad where I didn't want to go home I just wanted to keep going and exploring. We went 6 mil (miles? 60+ km) and it became dark and mom called cause she was worried, which made us return home unfortunately. This was cross country though and we weren't equipped for more than a day either so I guess it was for the best either way.

In Norwegian we really don't use the term hike, instead we use the term "tur" - "tur" can mean anything from walking to the grocery store(tur i butikken) to walking around your neighborhood on a Sunday(Søndags tur) to walking in the mountains(fjelltur). - Personally I did all my mountain hiking as child and don't think I would do it again as an adult. -The whole concept of "tur" is very Norwegian, especially "ski-tur"😆

We have on average ten foreigners die in Norwegian nature every year, because it's so extreme. Particularly the mountains, because people don't understand that conditions can change from easy summer to hard winter in 30 minutes or that fog suddenly makes you blind while the rocks get slippery as polished ice. You should really prepare yourself.

My beautiful Norwegian country. I have been to these places in the mountains. One tip from me is to have a travel companion who can show and explain when you are walking in the mountains. Then you are also safer if something were to happen, because many people lose their lives because they are careless and have no respect for the mountain. My tip is also to remember that the Norwegian weather is unstable and can change from sunny and hot to cold and wet and strong wind. So you have to dress according to the weather and also bring food and drink on the trip. Thank you for this video Tyler .

Two small comments: 1. You can bathe in the pond she showed, but it's meltwater from glaciers so it's really, really cold. 2. The nature in Norway can be dangerous. We don't really put up warning signs in places which are obviously dangerous, only those which are not obviously dangerous(to Norwegians). Also, you can go from sunny 20°C to 0°C and snow in a half-hour. This comes as a surprise to many tourists, so they may freeze to death, or fall to their death, or wander of too close to a glacier and get smashed by falling ice.

Fog and flat light is the greatest killer. Well that, and avalanches I guess. Some people just love to walk _right below_ "utfallssoner" with no planning whatsoever and they tend to have foreign names (I can't remember a single Norwegian dying in an avalanche here but I am confident it have happened to at least _some_ Norwegians too, and I bet many even experienced Norwegians have been jumped by fog. Do not drink glacier water unless you have a great immune system or are aware of the risks and ready for what may happen. It's gray and taste very iron-y, like placing your tongue on a large battery (connecting the + and - ). It's not inherently dangerous, but animals may have died falling into the crevasses and them and many other things may lie rotting in the path of the water that eventually emerge below the glacier, and isn't filtered well yet.

Hi Taylor! NO, not all mountain hikes are hard work. Many Norwegians had also struggled with these trips. But from what I see, she is in the west and north-west. There are also many nice areas, for example in Geilo, Hemsedal, Gol, Etnedal, and in Østerdalen. Those trips are rarely challenging, but you should be in reasonable shape, because you will still have to go up and down mountains and heights. And you will still experience fantastic nature. Bring a tent and fishing rod, and something to drink from is a good idea. You can drink the water that flows in streams and rivers without risk of illness, the water is clear and cold, which you will appreciate on hot summer days. Fishing is a source of food that is not completely free, so check where you can buy a fishing license. You can catch trout and perch, which are good food fish. A gas burner is a good idea to bring, so you can cook hot food. In any case, ask for tips on what to bring on your trip, because you can have both bad and good weather, and take your time. Hope you get the chance to come to Norway one day!

14:20 Innerdalstårnet is 1452 m (approx. 4700 feet) above sea level. You start the hike from the parking at roughly 250 m above sea level (800 feet). It's already to crowded in this area, to many tourists during season. The funny thing is if you climb up on any of the neighbor mountains, Innerdalstårnet does not look so impressive any more. It is surrounded by much higher mountains which is more spectacular and have less people on the trail. This is an easy hike, I met two women in their 70's coming down from Innerdalstårnet a couple of years ago. On the other hand I have also seen people stuck up there, not able to reach the summit. I have done this hike numerous of times....

And just a helpful tip when you finally come to Norway - when norwegians (or hiking fans who come here) say a hike is easy you may want to take that with a grain of salt, as they really mean it is easy for experienced hikers. And even on easy routes remember the weather can change quickly and surprise you. Every year tourists underestimate places like Preikestolen and Trolltunga and end up in trouble. So, come prepared and you will have an amazing time :D

I have made 4 of these hikes as part of guided hikes. Thee first one included Galdhøpiggen and Besseggen in addition to Glittertind that is the second highest peak in Norway. The other one included Prekestolen and Kjerag. Tom Cruise has been there to make the movie Mission Impossible Fallout where Prekestoen was stand-in for the Himalayas. Kjerag is famous for base jumping. I saw them jumping when I was there, Kjerag is a mountain wall several kms long and 1 km tall. If coming to Norway you can do the same as I did, just buy a package all included from Stavanger and Oslo respectively. A fun fact is that when visiting his Norwegian friend and director of some of his films Will Smith made the hike to Galdhøpiggen with his Norwegian host so then you should do it following in his footsteps. None of these hikes are technically difficult but you need to be rather fit. Anyhow, these hikes are the highlights of my life and something that I will never forget.

I have seen the Rocky Mountains, the deserts, the californian coast, the beaches, the swamps in New Orleans, Everglade Florida, and I will never forget the Redwood forests. It is just fantastic, and then add a warmer climate and a lot better wildlife. I havent even been to Alaska or Hawaii. We norwegians are very patriotic, and often for a good reason, but many have not travvelled outside the tourist traps in Spain or Thailand. The thing about Norway is that the nature is very close to the urban areas, a hike is never far away, and it is a huge part of being norwegian.

Galdhøpiggen (the highest mountain in Norway) is a hike that can take around 8 hours but it is filled with picturesque views. I think the only danger there is the glazure and the top if you aren´t careful or aware of your surroundings. I climbed it with my class when I was 12, so it is possible for most people. I wish I could climb it again, though I would probably need a guide, I don´t want to be one of those people who will need to be saved.

She should have mentioned the amount of time it takes to hike them all: Besseggen: ~8 hours, includes some climbing (easy climb) Trolltunga: ~10 hours (at least with snow on the top) Preikestolen: just 1-2 hours, easy Other hikes worth seeing: Kattenakken: ~8 hours Skåla: ~8-10 hours I think, I haven't walked this one yet - but it's located near Kattenakken on the opposite side, nice area (lookup: Loen). Slogen: ~10 hours Hafrstadfjellet: ~1-2 hours, very steep and hard, but short. Alta Canyon: ~3-4 hours (easy hike, nice view, not too much people - very north) Treriksrøysa ~3-4 hours (border between Norway, Russia and Finland - very wet and hard to just get to the place - need a proper car!) Matmora: ~8 hours (spectacular hike near Lofoten islands, almost no people) Was going to the "matterhorn of Norway" this spring, but could not reach it as it was too much snow there at that time. But it's nice and almost nobody around, also barely any phone network. You can check out all the tours in more detail at "ut.no" webpage - excellent starting point!

Good suggestions, Skåla and Slogen I can approve. Falketind is great during summer and Rasletind and the nearby ones are great during winter. Bitihorn is fantastic for being so much lower than the absolute tallest ones. You can ski Telemark all the way down from the top onto the water, in a natural quarter pipe almost, it's incredible. Sogndal is "world renowned" (at least domestically lol) for its powder skiing during season. Odda is the prettiest small town I ever had the privilege to live in for a short while and Trolltunga is nearby (though I never visited).

All of these hikes are among the most popular ones in Norway. I have to admit i tried them all, some sevrall times. The last one is less common though and can be tricky, If you are not used to climb. If you have climbed .you can easly do it without rope and it is on my top 5 list. It is the last 80m of the climb that can be challenghing. I had to help a women down here, who where stuck just below the top. Trolltunga is a long hike and many tourist ends up wth problems. Hatten in Ofoten is a hinden Gem. Urkeegga is also very nice easy trip. These two trip has limited amount of people, and still amaong the best views. Hesten and segla at Senja is somthing I would like to try out later.

I live on the west coast of Norway, so expect mountains and fjords. For the record; my channel is not monetized.

In 2020 helicopter rescue service had about 3100 land-based operations not counting the smaller air ambulance helicopter who also do this type of operations sometimes, and additionally there are shitloads of land-based rescue operations, either by foot, ATV, or snowmobile. Often the weather does not allow the helicopter to fly. Especially tourists tend to simply not see their own limitations and prepare, and every year some fool with high heels and a dress is rescued out from the mountain. If your call for help is justified, then rescue operations are of course free of charge. You should react to this American reacting to one such operation, his reaction is priceless. kzbin.info/www/bejne/q2K7oqBseK51nMk I have not found the original video is on KZbin.

If you go on a 3 days hike from kjerag, you will decent 1100 meters in the end, finishing off with the worlds longest stair, 600 hight meters, and man, you will feel it in your legs. But then you jump on to the boat, and have a well deserved icecold beer.

I live in Sweden, and one of my favourite things to do in the summer is to go for a hike where I start walking at a friday after work or saturday morning, and then come back home at sunday afternoon. Then I bring my tent and other sleeping gear and some food (and look for where I can find water before I leave home since I don't like to carry it around). I also have my dogs with me ;) Then we walk a little while (a few hours), sit down to eat some lunch and have some rest, walk again and then put up the tent for the night. In the morning we eat breakfast, pack our things again and walk until it's time for lunch, after lunch we walk back home. It might seem like a lot of walking, but the trick is to walk slowly and really look at the surroundings. If you walk to fast, you will be tired way to quickly. And also I don't look at this as exercise, never. I do it beacuse I want to spend time in the relaxing forests, to get a pause from the city and everything there. I don't have a summer cabin or similar, so instead I take my tent and just walk to some beautiful places.

Mission Impossible 6 - Fallout, were filmed on location at Preikestolen (the "honorable mention"). I went there in '98, maybe I'll go again, if I can get my daugther to join me. They say it is about 8 km (5 miles), and about 4 hours for the round trip. Even if it can be crowded, it's an impressive experience. It's fair, ranked as "medium difficulty". But you'll need good footwear for hiking. Even if it's easy, you have to bring food and beverages.

You're still young. You could apply for a free university degree and get yourself a student visa, then you could get to experience Norway. Although as a student there wouldn't be that much time exploring Norway, but you still get the many school holidays. Or you could just do the normal tourist thing and come for a few weeks, that's probably a good start :)

If you are looking for a very easy and stunning hike I would suggest "Litlefjellet" or Little Mountain. It is right next to "Romsdalseggen" by Åndalsneset in Møre og Romsdal. The hike took me and my family along with some friends around 45 minutes and we had three kids under 12 with us, along with me having lung issues, so it should be very doable for you even if you are inexperienced. It gets a beautiful view of Trollveggen (The Troll Wall) and Åndalsneset and the surrounding area. In addition it is definitely a hidden gem so I would suggest asking a local for directions up to the beginning of the hike, from there it is very easy to see where to go using signs. I would warn you it is very steep but there is a simple to follow path, though I do recommend not going while it is raining and beware there is no cell service except for at the tippy top. If you are looking for good people to get as guides the Norwegian Tourist Assosciation(NFT) has guided tours to most of the popular places, but for hidden gems I would suggest asking local hikers or even local scouting groups. Scouting groups will sometimes go on these hikes and you could (potentially) ask to just follow them up, once you've gone the road up it is easy to make it down again for most of these.

Galdhøpiggen can also be reached without walking on the big glacier. But that route is MUCH harder beacuse of the hight difference from your starting point. To walk the glacier to the peak, your starting point is Juvasshytta. It has an incline/hight difference approx. 500 meters. Escaping the glacier your starting point will be Spiterstulern and the incline/hight difference will be approx. 1350 meters. I will say that the best hikes in Norway is most def. in Jotunheimen. Many peaks are crowded, but on many of them you can hike a whole day without seeing another person...

A amazing one not to far from me is "Slogen", you have 2 routes, the extremly steep one coming up from the vally that the old "hotel union øye" (opend in 1891), it is 3,8km long but it is almost all at 30-40 degree inclination, and a longer flatter path thrue a vally leading up to a cabin you can rent rooms at called "Patchellhytta" or set up tents close to it if you want to take your time. But the view from the top of Slogen is amazing.

I don't think there's an English equivalent really... for either of our words. For "telttur" or "tur" they say "camping" or "trip" I think, but then they're most often used for kids camping in their garden type, or a trip to Copa Cabana.... definitely not our version of the words You have "backpacking" but that's like interrail. "Outbacking"? But then "outback" is just a weird English TikTok type fad word for being more than 1 km from civilization lol "Expedition" still means the same as Ekspedisjon but that's such a large jump. Any native English speaker reading this feel free to help or correct any of this

4:44 Yes, it can be dangerous. We have foreigners dying in Norway every single year because they didn't respect our nature. Anything from walking off a cliff in the fog to freezing to death, to being taken by a avalanche or a rock slide, to dying from eating toxic mushrooms to drowning in one of our rivers or at the sea off our coast and so one and so forth... Norway is a very safe place. But a certain amount of common sense and humility is a requirement for survival.
@SebHaarfagre

Genuinely, Galdhøpiggen is not a difficult hike, and it's not far if you start from Juvasshytta instead of Spiterstulen. The "glacier" isn't a glacier. Well.. I guess it is, but it has an extremely low inclination and is super tiny. Even if you were to slide down the whole thing, even ramping up speed on _purpose,_ I don't think you'd be physically able to hurt yourself. I believe there's no cracks even in spring (and I never saw the bend if one exist, it must be far further down from Juvasshytta in that case) Went here with some friends when studying Friluftsliv just because we were nearby during one of our expeditions and we went from Juvasshytta since we were tired. So we used our ropes and stegjern (ice spikes??? God knows what it's called in English) of course but it felt stupid to walk there with all that gear. We did not hire a guide because we were all practiaclly (and literally) educated on exactly what such guides must do to be able to guide on ice (and I mean proper glaciers). The guide part is probably to prevent tourist injuries and extreme unfortunate events due to extreme negligence which can occur with tourists. (I'm not trying to be arrogant or condescending I'm just being honest and 100% forward) or to earn money; but I still think it's better to have people not used to the outdoors be part of a guided tour (and that goes for almost all of Jotunheimen and beyond for that matter). The climb after the glacier is much steeper and some hand usage is required. But there's ropes on the worst part and it would be hard to die there, I guess it's possible to get injured. Spiterstulen to Galdhøpiggen is much much longer and you should be up early (9 AM at latest) if you want to summit somewhat leisurely. The hike is much much easier during summer but it's still a long climb at least from the bottom (Spiterstulen). You have a plethora of much more dramatic views (from around Bygdin for instance, since it's such an open immediate area and steeper mountains and taller climbs, so you can see further, but there's also plenty of others)(Falketind and Rasletind are also great choices)

I hope you get a chance to go to Norway sometime! But I'm sure there are lots of beautiful hikes that you can explore in the States too:) This may be a given, but it is definitely still worth mentioning for anyone who wants to try out hiking (including Norwegians); Please remember to leave no 'evidence' around in nature - track free hiking. Be prepared to carry garbage and toilet paper/waste with you as you go; trash cans are not common in the mountains. Also, be prepared for changable weather. Remember that there is no shame in turning back! During your hike, you might experience rain/snow (depending on the season and area), fog and wind, even if the sky is clear when you start off.

'Trollstigen', you can step out of the car on the top, and walk around the top of that great mountainrange.. i was terrified on the way up in the car, in every turn you would look straight down the mountain, it is horrifying lol. But you should go there, and do a live-stream.. that would be fun.. to us.

"These hikes are on a totally different level" Not really, this is a fairly common level of hiking, it's just that American's are far below that level, in general, because of obesity and in general a lack of activity. Heh, 28 kilometers is not long and "climbing some rocks" is still a part of hiking, but some narrow paths you might have to "climb"(like stairs, not like an actual rock climber).
