It’s still possible to drive up to the lower viewing point and look at Stigfossen. And you can walk the old Kingsway.
I was really looking forward to riding through it on my motorcycle vacation this summer. Hopefully the fylkeskommune are able to secure it before winter comes 🙂
Safety first.
I was planning a trip this summer. Can someone recommend an alternative scenic route from Åndalsnes to Geiranger? I already booked accommodation in Åndalsnes.
Leave it to the mountain trolls to ruin everyone’s summer
Oh dear. So glad I got to visit and drive the route last September. Visited from Canada. Such a spectacular place.
Noen som vet hvordan dette påvirker kollektiv transporten? Skal gå Tafjordfjella om 3 uker og kommer ned fra fjella i Geiranger. Planen var å ta buss til Åndalsnes og nattbussen til Oslo..
I was just there two days ago. Glad I got to see it from the top even if I couldn’t drive down and it added an hour to our planned trip by doubling back. I saw people walking on the road though, if they are serious about safety they need better signage that it is closed to both cars and pedestrians.
If you want something similar you can drive “Eikesdalsveien”
Its East of Trollstigen, and while its not as curvy, you drive through a tunnel that goes under/over the road you just drove on.

Nooo just when I funally decided to go for an epic roadtrip to Norway 😀 Never mind
I was going to drive from Geiranger to Alesund (stay 1 night) via Trollstigen in September. Before Geiranger, I am staying in Boverdalen to visit Jotunheimen. On my road trip I would have already driven Aurlandsfjellet and Sognefjellet.
Driving from Linge Ferry to Stigfossen and back adds another 1.5 hours. Is that still a truly memorable drive, or should I skip it and spend a bit more time enjoying Alesund?
