We've chosen to include some staircases that aren't "classic sherpa staircases", since wood and metal staircases can obviously serve the same purpose — making it easier for people to get up into the mountains. Vegatrappa and Midnattsoltrappa are good examples of staircases that do the same job as a "classic sherpa staircase", just in wood.

This site is meant as an overview of all the longer hiking staircases in Norway, not just stone staircases built by sherpas from Nepal.

Munketrappene på Myking is an old stone staircase built in the Middle Ages to make it easier for people to get to the church. The staircase has 52 steps and was restored by sherpas from Nepal in 2025. The old Munketrappene at Myking had its official opening on September 14, 2025.

It's not easy to find information about exactly where the staircase is, but parking is said to be at Myking ball court. Tips are appreciated.
