Take an excursion in a Trollcar 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 in 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 a half-mile from the glacier. Have a nice walk to the glacier and into Jostedal Glacier National Park before catching the troll car back to the starting point.
