Facebbook photo walk: Trolltunga/The Troll tongue, Tyssedal - Norway

The hike in the mountains to Trolltunga is an 8-10 hour walk both ways, about 22 kilometers, with a height difference of about 10000 meters. The start of the hike its hard!

You have a fantastic view along the trail over Ringedalsvatnet and the mountains around. You can also see the glacier of Folgefonna along the walk. When you get at trolltunga it is magnificent.
