When you listen to the "The Mountain King", by Grieg, you can hear the brooks giggle and the thundering waterfalls galloping down the wild mountains sides.
When born here, Norway mountains Norwegian nature is planted deep in our soul. I have spent many summers at Tokleskaret going to sleep at night by the non-stop lullaby of the dancing waterfalls. The laughing brooks and the loudly humming river is "nature's orchestrated melodies of the mountain king". In "the olden days" farmers (bønder) employed ladies (budeier/seterjenter) to care for the cows, which were kept in the mountains during the summer. Budeia lived in the farmer's mountain cabin (setra). In some places of the country, this form of summer farming tradition still goes on.  Sheep grazing by mountain cabin,Tokleskaret, Romsdal The grass in the mountains is especially rich and nutritious so the cows would give extra rich and delicious milk. The dairy products were carried down to the farm.

Climbing Romsdalshorn
Mountain climbers from all over the world come here to test their skills and to conquer these wild, majestic peaks. Troll Wall (Trollveggen), located in Romsdal. (left) Sometimes these daring visiting climbers venture up into these dangerous peaks without guides that know the territory well and occasionally they have to be rescued with helicopters. These risky climbs end well most times, but unfortunately, sometimes not. The white line indicates the route Russian mountain climbers used to conquer this peak.
