    Worthwhile trip that doesn’t take too much out of your day. Still a couple hours left to explore Haugesund before boarding the cruise. Although could have spent more time out on the top, beautiful views! The hike up is a little steep, so wear good shoes. The alternate route down the hill through the forest is a must! It starts right after the second gate on the way down. Potentially could have included it as part of the way up. Great job Howard!

    Great chance to escape shopping and to go inland. Hike is steep, but short. Take your time - it is worth it

    Great tour guide !

    Excellent and very knowledgeable tour guide, Mr Knut made our experience outstanding! Amazing views from the summit.

    Great small-group tour

    Very friendly guide. The peak was spectacular. And we had extra time so the tour took us around town to points of interest.

    Beautiful views from the top

    Ed_H, Aug 2024
    The steep grades of the path were moderately challenging, but the view from the top was stunning and totally worth the effort. The gravel path made for an easy descent.

    Great hike!

    Alexandra_S, Aug 2024
    So much fun! Believe the description that it is a strenuous hike, but it's so worth it to get to the top and see the views! Our guides were great - very knowledgeable and made sure no one was getting left behind. Definitely recommend!

    Excellent tour. Spectacular views and scenery

    Samantha_S, Aug 2024
    Loved this hike and tour. Elisabeth and Ines were fantastic guides. The views were spectacular. It was a little steep in areas but the guides waited for everyone. Definitely a highlight of our Norway holiday. Thank you 🙏

    Incredible Views!

    Mary_L, Jun 2024
    Absolutely outstanding guides and hike. Note the hike is not long but it is very steep up a gravel path. We did not bring our 4yo or 7yo and that was the right decision given how steep the trail was. Though kids slightly older made it up at a slower pace, as did some very in shape elderly people with walking poles they brought with them. The views and pictures from the top are unrivaled. We were very lucky to have clear views for about 45 minutes at the top before a storm rolled in and completely blocked the view and rained on us all the way down—but we’ve discovered that’s just the weather in this area—can change fast but if you’re lucky enough to have a clear day at the top—this tour shouldn’t be missed.

    Must See Spot in Haugesund!

    Super well organized, beautiful location, great guides, highly recommend! One couple in our group even got engaged at the top!

    Standing on top of the world!

    Amy_S, Jun 2023
    This hike was worth the sweat equity. The trail is rather steep in parts and has multiple switch-backs. Our guide supplied a bottle of authentic Norwegian water - very refreshing, and a surprisingly delicious double decker sandwich, The layers were separated by wax paper, so the sandwich stayed fresh til you reach the summit. I also got to try the Norwegian cheese they are so proud of. It's got a distinctive taste that added another dimension to the sandwich. Of course, you could always pull it off if you don't like it since there's still Swiss cheese on it. They also include their version of a Kit Kat bar. Our guides made sure to stop along the way to give people a break when needed, and then you are standing on top of the world!

    Well done, Amy! The trail is steep but we agree that the view is worth the slog! So glad you enjoyed your Norwegian "matpakke" :)

    Super Wanderung zur kleinen Trollzunge

    Wandeling was ondanks de regen fantastisch. Het uitzicht op de top geweldig. Wij hadden een super gids, Elizabeth. Na de wandeling heeft ze ons nog verschillende bezienswaardigheden van Haugesund laten zien. Een aanrader!
