Nobody would want to go hiking in the summer unless they want to be dried out. However, Norwegians don't think so. Mountain climbing is their most popular outdoor activity in summer.


Soaring mountains, waterfalls down the river, never-setting sun, and summer snow, there is no better way to escape the heat than this!


Kim Petersen, who was born in Denmark and moved to Norway 20 years, said, "Norwegian people love nature, and it is their mountains that fascinate them the most."


Come and take a look at the three most popular mountains in Norway now, choose the one that suits you best, and go conquer it!


1. Besseggen Ridge


Besseggen Ridge in Jotunheimen National Park is one of Norway's most famous hiking trails. In Norwegian, Jotunheimen means "house of giants".


Because you are in the endless Beth Ridge, you will feel how small human beings are in nature, and you don't need to worry about the troubles in life.


Although the mountains are rugged, they are not steep and can be climbed as long as you are healthy. Therefore, it is a good choice for adventurers who are new to hiking.


Jotunheimen National Park is located at the junction of Norway's east and west, including Norway's highest peak - Hurrungane Garch. In addition, there are beautiful waterfalls, clear rivers, and fertile valleys.


Therefore, it is the best choice for tourists to take short walks here or to hike for several days.


2. Sognefjellet Mountain


The highest peaks in Northern Europe - Galdhøpiggen (2469m) and Glittertind (2464m) are located between Sognefjellsvegen. Sognefjellsvegen is one of Norway's national tourist routes, and you can see many spectacular peaks along the way.


It is precise because Sognefjord is surrounded by surrounding mountains, which makes Sognefjord even more isolated and mysterious.


Sognefjellsvegen runs through the Jotunheimen Park and the Breheimen National Park. Along the road, you can see small and exquisite villages everywhere.


The wooden houses and straw roofs give this place a unique view. Any peak here is more than 2000 meters above sea level. Because of its high latitude and high terrain, skiing is possible all year round.


Every summer, many national ice and snow teams go here to train.


3. Stryn Mountains


The Stryn Mountains are located on Old Stryne Road (Gamle Strynefjellsvegen). This old road is one of the national tourist routes, which stretches from Geiranger to Trollstigen and was completed in 1884.


The road itself is a great attraction, and the surrounding scenery is even more beautiful. If you pride yourself on being daring, go climb the Stryn Mountains! There are cliffs and mountains, as well as deep waterfalls.


In addition to this, there is the Trollstigen Mountain Road (Trollstigen). In 1936, Torrolstigen Mountain Road was officially opened to the public.


The Torolstigen Pass is surrounded by steep mountains, some of which are called Kongen, some are called Dronningen, and some are called Bispen, enough to highlight their nobility in the mountains.


There are a total of 11 terrifying corners and a steep grade of 9 percent. Among them, the steepest and most difficult section is the Eagle Road, which is most suitable for hard-core mountaineers to challenge!


A bird's-eye view of the Geirangerfjord and the famous Seven Sisters waterfall will be the best reward for this adventure.
