Ruslan Yunisov says: "This place changes a person's idea of nature and its beauty. Everything here is different, unusual and even a little unreal. These and thousands of other thoughts whirled through my head as we climbed the Dalsnibba Mountain, where the guidebooks promised us a magnificent view of the Geiranger Fjord. To get to this mountain, you need to go along road number 63. The one on which the Troll Ladder meanders and which passes by the Geiranger."

After we left the village of Geiranger and the shore of the fjord of the same name, the road went up into the mountains. Somewhere sharp and with sharp turns, somewhere like this.

Very picturesque places! To drive all the way without stopping would be blasphemous. Look at the cute houses on the cliff. But there is no road to them, only if you walk through a stormy river and up.

In previous reports, I mentioned the peculiarity of Norway, which is a sharp change in the situation after a slight rise. Here the height is a little more than 1000 meters, but no trees, only rocks, moss and snow, only hardcore!

The RV63 road rises up to this point. Here the driver has to decide whether to climb higher or go further. The Dalsnibba sign with the "Observation deck" icon says that we have arrived at the address and we need to go upstairs.

But before that, we take a few shots on the shore of the lake with the unpronounceable name Djupvatnet. But what you can't take away from him is the gorgeous color of the water. It was a lake of intense blue-blue color! Words cannot convey it, it must be seen!

After a few tens of meters of climbing, you will have to stop at this place. This is the payment point for climbing the mountain. The cars will have to pay 100 crowns, which is about 560 rubles.

We climb higher and suddenly find a picturesque house on a cliff by the road. And yes, the color of the lake water is visible in this photo.
