Excursion by Trollcars to the Briksdal Glacier.
  • Briksdalbreen Glacier

  • Waterfalls

  • Jostedalsbreen National Park

  • Trollcar excursion


For more than 100 years the farmers in Oldedalen have welcomed and transported tourists with horse and carriage. In 2004 the horse and carriage were replaced with the “Troll cars”. 

The trip starts next to the souvenir shop in Briksdal and takes you to the stand about 700 m away from the glacier. You will have a nice walk to the glacier, into the Jostedal Glacier National Park, before the troll car takes you back to starting point.
