Fodor's Expert Review Norsk Tindemuseum

One of Norway’s most famous mountaineers, Arne Randers Heen (1905–91), and his wife, Bodil Roland, founded this fascinating museum dedicated to mountain climbing. Displays of Heen’s equipment and descriptions of his many triumphs are among the highlights here. The mountain nearest to his heart was Romsdalshorn, rising 5,101 feet into the air. He climbed that mountain 233 times, the last time when he was 85. He was the first to reach the top of several other mountains in northern Norway. The museum is now in a new building, with Norsk Tindesenter, where you can test your climbing skills, and much more.
