One of the most touristic places - Trolltunga which is located in Oreland in the skirts of the Norway mountains looks like a Troll's tongue. But why Ogre? The story of this monument’s name comes from Norway legends, from the giant's named Trolls who lived in this area. According to another legend, these ogres were afraid of the Sun, thus there is the Sun's impact on the name of the Giant’s tongue. They believed that the Sun brings them death. Whereas once, one of the ogres decided to approve that this belief is not true, therefore s/he showed tongue to the Solar within sunrise. This attitude was not appreciated by God and suddenly the tongue turned to stone.

How could we travel to this mesmerizing place?

The easiest way to reach this destination is to cross Tyssedal from Bergen. There is great parking at the start point of the footway. The daily fee is approximately 20$. Apart from this, you could travel by Bergen train to Voss, then using a bus in Odd you could reach Teyselda, but it takes 7 hours. An interesting piece of evidence is that traveling by car takes 3 hours. You need hypothetically 120$ for transport just see this amazing view based on 2016 statistics. From this point to Trolltunga you need to walk 11km by yourself because there are “T” signs which help you to reach the point.
