The Sherpa Trapeze has been here since 2017. Real Sherpas have skillfully stacked it from large boulders. It's absolutely ingenious. The steep 1,330 steps to the top are not without effort, but are quite easy.

After completing our trekking tour through Norway, a relaxing day in Bergen was on the agenda. Of course, a short climb up Ulriken was a must. From the top, you have a fantastic view of Bergen and the surrounding area. But we ended up going down by gondola.
