This was my first climb of any sort, and my first Via Ferrata, so I was pretty nervous! We rented our gear from the Åndalsnes visitor center, it was a beautiful day and the beauty of this place helped calm the nerves, or at least give me something else to look at. We geared up and started climbing after a small hike up a marked trail. I think the first section was definitely one of the hardest, there wasn't enough metal hand or foot grips so I freaked out a bit the first time I had to rest my toe on a tiny piece of rock. After a tantrum and quite a few tears, uglefisk (Paal Andre Lund) climbed back down to push me upwards and it was pretty smooth sailing from there.
I have done a couple of Via Ferrata's since and I think this one was definitely one of the most challenging, but I heard they were looking to put a few extra hand and foot holds in so it might be a bit easier now. It was really fun and an awesome experience, the view was increddible and it was lovely to visit Rampestrekken and walk down the stairs of Nesaskla.
