There is a P3 parking lot, the starting point of the Trolltunga trek, and there is only a sign at the entrance, so I was curious to see something, but after seeing the natural scenery that unfolds at the start, I can understand why the entrance is so simple.

Worth every penny! I can't express how happy I am with the decision to pre-book the P3. Nice staff too who show the way, both thumbs up 👍👍

It's really worth to park at P3 in order to save energy and time for the best part of the route. Better to book about 1 week in advance. It takes about 3 hours one way to Trolltunga, 20 km in total, not hard for experienced tourists, breathtaking views are along the whole trail. The trail is well marked and is very convenient to walk. Must do in Norway!
