Hiking the mountains at Phillipshaugen Lodge

At Phillipshaugen Lodge, you can stay in historic surroundings, enjoy cold refreshments, local food, and a warm sauna after a day of summiting.

The hotel serves as a perfect base for steep summer hikes in Trollheimen and Sunndalsfjella, located just 50 minutes from Molde Airport. Right outside the door, you'll find some of the world's highest coastal mountains with airy but safe trails reaching up to 1800 meters above sea level. Øksendalen and Sunndalsfjella in Nordmøre are situated between Trollheimen and Romsdalsalpene. Here, you'll discover alpine mountain trails leading to classics like Innerdalstårnet, Ekkertind, and Litjkalken, as well as shorter hikes like Flaggnuten, Åsbrona, and Kongelhjellan, offering fantastic exercise and breathtaking views.

In the steep Litjdalen, you'll find the airy railway track Toppheis, a cultural relic from the construction of Aura Power Plant. Alongside Europe's highest waterfall, the world's longest Sherpa staircase is under construction, already gaining popularity among the locals.
