Good physical fitness: You should be able to walk at least 800–1200 meters in altitude in a day, with a capacity of approximately 400 meters in altitude per hour.
Climbing experience is an advantage, but not necessary. Romsdalshorn is a demanding and airy peak, so it is very important to be comfortable with heights. You can participate in an introductory climbing course with us if you want to prepare yourself better. Please contact us.
Be in good nok health to travel in exposed terrain in the mountains.

Tour description Romsdalshorn (North Wall)
The hike starts at the end of the Vengedalen valley, a short drive from Åndalsnes. We begin by walking up a steep but very beautiful path that leads us to a ridge with great viewpoints over Romsdalen.
Continuing along the ridge, we reach “Gapet”, the starting point where we prepare for the technical part of the hike ahead. This will take approximately 1 to 1.5 hours.
The first 100 meters involve relatively easy scrambling, but the terrain gradually gets steeper, and we have to climb to grade 4 (Norwegian) to reach the top. We expect around six-seven pitches, covering about 250 meters of ascent.
The climb is steep, but never difficult. Just where you need a roof – there is a roof!
After about 2 hours of climbing, you will stand at the top – overlooking the infamous Trollveggen, Romsdalen, and you can now say you have climbed Romsdalshorn!For our descent we use the same route we went up, and rappel back down safely. We usually start the adventure at 07:00, and the whole trip takes between 6-8 hours.
