Ørnevegen is a section of road located on county road 63 (former national road) between Eidsdal and Geiranger. The road consists of nine hairpin bends that extend from the fjord at Grande to the mountain pass at Korsmyra. Ørnevegen has since 2012 been the official part of the national tourist road Trollstigen-Geiranger and was therefore upgraded in previous years, especially at the lookout point Ørnesvingen. The road was completed in 1956 before it went to Geiranger by boat from Valldal and Eidsdal. The road was officially opened by county governor Olav Oksvik on 15 September 1955.

Gudbrandsjuvet is a river gorge in the river Valldøla in Fjord municipality (formerly Norddal) on Sunnmøre. The visitor center and viewing platforms are part of the National Tourist Road along County Road 63 from Geiranger to Trollstigen. Fylkesvei 63 crosses the river in a bridge over the gill. Gudbrand bridge is a dry-walled stone vault bridge built-in 1919 as part of the main road Valldal-Romsdal. The stone arch bridge replaced an old bridge (existed in 1785), the old bridge was 12 cubits long and 3 cubits wide.
The water-rich river flows between gorges and cracks in the rock and meets from quite unexpected angles, before flowing under the bridge and plunging further down the valley. The gorge is partly formed by several large potholes. The water feature is a tourist attraction, and platforms and bridges have been built in a mixture of glass and rust-corroded iron in both walls and floors. Close by is the Juvet landscape hotel, with the rooms as separate buildings on stilts in the terrain by the gorge.
Tourists should exercise caution when accidents have occurred.

Romsdalen is long and narrow with high majestic mountains on each side. At the bottom of the valley, the traditional salmon river Rauma foams in wild and beautiful nature. At Verma, Rauma goes through a 30-40 meter high gorge and forms Slettafossen. The waterfall is secured with fences on each side and has a bridge directly across. Trollveggen is Europe's highest vertical and overhanging rock wall at 1000 meters.
It was in the Romsdal Alps that the cradle of climbing was in Europe around 1880, and there are still several of the world's most difficult climbing routes. On the opposite side of Trollveggen, Romsdalshorn rises to a height of 1555 meters. Romsdalshorn is a favorite climbing destination for both national and international climbers.
Trollveggen Besøkssenter is an architectural gem and was named one of the world's 10 most beautiful cafes by Architectural Digest USA. Trollveggen Visitor Center shows a dramatic film about the history of Trollveggen with clips from climbing feats and rescue operations, climbing, and base jumping. The building also contains a souvenir shop, auditorium, and toilets. Take time to visit here and enjoy a fantastic view of the mountains. Rest area with tourist information, WC, kiosk, playground, and fantastic views to the mountains located along the E136 just below Trollveggen.
Trollstigen is one of Norway's foremost tourist route icons and offers spectacular experiences in each of the 11 hairpin bends that wind their way up the mountainside. In some places, the road is carved into the rock, in other places it is built up with stone walls. An impressive bridge in natural stone crosses Stigfossen.
Geiranger - Trollstigen National Tourist Route is a stretch of road that runs through western Norwegian nature at its most powerful. Here you get dizzying views of steep mountainsides, high waterfalls, deep fjords, and fertile valleys. The road is surrounded by majestic mountains such as the King, Queen and Bishop. The actual stretch of road called Trollstigen is not very long, but the National Tourist Road from Geiranger to the bottom of Romsdalen is 10 mi
