First, you'll travel by coach and ferry on a three-hour panoramic drive through the Romsdal area. You are headed to the gigantic Trollstigen (Trollwall) -- Europe's tallest vertical mountain wall. It is 5,950 feet from the valley to the top of the wall, of which 3,300 feet is sheer vertical. Pause for a buffet lunch en route.
One of Norway's most beautiful rail routes is the Rauma Railway -- the highlight of your excursion today. Hop aboard -- your scenic 45-minute train journey begins at the village of Dombås and travels 70 miles down the Romsdal Valley. The line opened in the 1920s as a branch of the Dovre Line between Oslo and Trondheim. Enjoy Norwegian nature and countryside from the panoramic windows -- it's a spectacular landscape of fjord and mountain scenery.
Your trip ends in Åndalsnes, and you will return to the ship by coach and ferry.
Notes:
Minimal walking required. This is a scenic tour with sightseeing from the coach and train.
