About this experience

Have you ever spent a night suspended on a cliff with a fjord view? Do you know anyone who has done something like that?

We can take you to this special place where you will see the fjord landscape of Hardanger and Folgefonna glacier. We will take a tour through the old hydropower tunnels and get to know the area better.

We are one out of two companies in Norway that offers this "one of a kind" activity. Challenge yourself and try something new!

Children under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult.

If you would like to bring your pet, please be aware that it will not be able to sleep in the tent.

Please be aware that we need to limit the consumption of alcohol due to safety reasons. We therefore ask you to not bring any hard liquor on the tour. If in doubt, your guide will have the last word and might not allow you to access the portaledge tent or get close to the cliff side and can decide to walk you back down to the parking and therewith end the tour. We hold the responsibility for your personal safety and therefore ask for your understanding, especially since Norwegian laws are very strict on alcohol consumption.

You access your tent for the night via a rope ladder. You are secured and assisted by a professional guide at all times. Nevertheless, this activity requires a good level of fitness, and you should not be afraid of heights. If you decide that you would rather spend your night more grounded, we have regular tents available.

You need to bring warm clothing that suits the time of year and the weather of the day.

You need to bring your own personal medications.

Bring a bottle of water, at least 1 liter.

For safety reasons there is a weight limit of 100kg per person (total 200kg) for sleeping in the portaledges. If you exceed this limit but would still like to book this tour, we can provide you with an alternative on the ground – with the same stunning views.

Meeting point

We meet at the P1 parking on the road to Trolltunga. The road is well marked and we will be waiting there for you next to the building at the parking.
