Trollstigen, Mountain pass in Rauma Municipality, Norway

The Trollstigen road winds through eleven hairpin bends with a 10 percent incline, reaching an elevation of 820 meters in western Norway.

King Haakon VII inaugurated Trollstigen in July 1936 after an eight-year construction period, establishing a vital connection between Åndalsnes and Valldal.

The name translates to 'Troll's Path' in Norwegian, referring to the mythological creatures believed to inhabit the mountains of Scandinavian folklore.

The mountain pass remains open from mid-May until October, with daily traffic reaching 2,500 vehicles during summer peak season.

A 320-meter waterfall called Stigfossen cascades alongside the road, visible from multiple viewing platforms at the 700-meter plateau.
