Round Trip: Molde - Midsund - Molde

This round trip takes you to Midsund, located on Otrøya in Romsdalsfjorden, where only a few small islands and islets separate the island from the Atlantic Ocean. The tour is offered by bus and ferry to make it easier to access Midsund for a hike in the Midsund Steps. Sherpas from Nepal have built amazing stone steps to make the hike up to Digergubben mountain more accessible to the public. The hike to Digergubben starts right in the center of Midsund. The stone work is an attraction in itself. Adding to this the fantastic views of mountains, fjord, and the ocean, it's truly worth the trip.

Practical information

The terrain is steep, but with the steps, it's easier for more people to take this hike.

Make sure you wear sufficient clothing and good footwear, as it can be cool in these parts even in summer.

The trip to Midsund can be booked all year round, but in winter, it may not always be advisable to climb the steps. Check the conditions before you go!

Before you embark on the Midsund Steps, we recommend preparing by reading more about the hike. For hiking descriptions, see the book: The best hikes in Midsund.

About the Midsund Steps

The Midsund Steps consist of four hiking trails, parts of which are fitted with stone steps by Sherpas from Nepal - an impressive work that will bring joy for hundreds of years. The structure with the steps is worth the hike itself, plus you get a fantastic view of mountains, fjord, and sea.

Rørsethornet (659 m.a.s.l.) - Norway's longest continuous stone steps with 2200 steps

Digergubben (527 m.a.s.l.) and Midsundhornet (483 m.a.s.l.)

Bløkallen (522 m.a.s.l.) - perhaps the finest hike along the old Kløvstien

Aksla (110 m.a.s.l.) and Akslahornet (411 m.a.s.l.) - the shortest hike to the viewpoint Aksla, more challenging towards Akslahornet.
