Conceived by adventure visionary Per Helge Bø and crafted by the renowned Austrian firm HZI, Stigull is the latest sensation in extreme tourism. It's not just an ordinary ladder — it's a jaw-dropping 40-metre-long ascent, suspended a dizzying 790 metres above the beautifully rugged Norwegian landscape.

Opened on 31 May, Stigull joins the Via Ferrata Loen, transforming the region into a mecca for adrenaline junkies and daredevils hungry for high-octane experiences.

As visitors ascend, each step will test their mettle and courage, but the reward? An unparalleled sense of accomplishment and a bird's-eye view of one of the world's most stunning natural landscapes.

From its lofty perch, Stigull offers a breathtaking panorama of fjords and mountains, creating a surreal sensation of floating in thin air. It's a heart-pounding challenge designed for thrill-seekers eager to push their limits and conquer the skies.
