Hiking Trolltunga & Wildcamping in the Snow

While in Norway, Harvey and I decided to do an overnight hike and wildcamp to the famous viewpoint, Trolltunga. We were met with unexpectedly wintry conditions in May and I had my first experience of camping in snow.

Awesome video! I spend a lot of time in Stavanger, Norway so lucky enough to have been to some cool places. Trolltunga is defo one of those! Next time head to Lofoten for 1 week in the summer....you will not regret it!! That place will blow your mind!

[@Seminight7]

Awesome 👏🏻 II new to Norway and this is a hike that is definitely in my list

[@nickbenfell4327]

Wonderful - I will look at snow and cold differently. You make everything beautiful.

[@simply.matias]

Hi, great to see you two! Snow makes wild camping a special experience 😃 It's best if you go warm in the bag and have boiling hot water at your feet - makes all the difference. Enjoy🙌

[@RambleFamily]

Good idea!! I think I might try filling my water bottle with hot water next time so I don't have to carry a hot water bottle. Will definitely try it out. Thanks Matias :)

[@simply.matias]

Athena Mellor yes it's totally different experience and it's amazing how long it lasts 😀 Take care!

[@mattstera]

I'm saving this for tomorrow. 🤘.

[@sarahmccormack4494]

I'm very jealous of all the snow. Cheers!

[@RambleFamily]

We weren't expecting so much! It was a bit of a shock...

[@kartikmakwana6328]

[@celticwanderer6407]

[@RambleFamily]

Thank you :)

[@superSkyMatt]

Nice video.What tent did you used for this hike ?

[@Elfin4]

What was teh tent you used on this hike ?

[@1Molehill]

I think Trolltunga is the viewpoint used by base jumpers , and folks with wingsuits to have mega jumps

[@Rosbecf]

Hi where did you get your sunglasses from. Really like your vids

[@billbaynes3432]

You certainly get around!

[@onemanandhiswhippet]

Great video well done 👍

[@RambleFamily]

Thanks!

[@X_explorer]

Very good vid!

[@HingLaw]

Just curious. What time of the year did you make your hike up to Troltunga? The weather looked to be in the time period when a hiking guide is mandated.

[@johnnichols1140]

get lost karen

[@Chillyaussie]

What month did you do this in. I'm going in February next year and really want to do this hike!!

[@thetoan77]

Is it not fobidden to hike here during winter without guide?

[@andrewstorm8240]

Well done for finding your way as it’s not always obvious to find the tongue

[@salty8303]

What tent did you use in this camp? Also what rucksack and what size?

[@Kat-us7gx]

It's a lowe Alpine backpack. I'm not sure the size

[@newlandpark]

Great stuff! Can you tell me what brand your head band is please?

[@RambleFamily]

I bought it in Kathmandu when I went trekking in Nepal last year... sorry can't be more helpful!

[@newlandpark]

Athena Mellor Thanks for your reply 👍

[@brianbrooking496]

[@garciajoaquin476]

Soy español que tienda de campaña tenias

[@Strandlaeufer77]

Does not look like an emergency situation to me? So why do you planned to stay in one of the shelters put up only for tourists who have no idea about the tour?

[@thekedellas]

Hi there, love your vids, who is the music that’s playing?

[@RambleFamily]

Hi! It is Boy & Bear - The Storm, and Bon Iver - Blindsided :)

[@thekedellas]

Athena Mellor Ah thanks, I knew the Bon Ivor track, keep up the good work. 👍🏽

[@antonioolid1832]

In which date did you do that?

[@RambleFamily]

This was mid-May! We definitely weren't expecting so much snow!

[@antonioolid1832]

@@RambleFamily we're thinking to go last week of october, do you think it will be easy to camp there in that date?

[@RambleFamily]
