Staircase facts
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.
Oftenåsen is a popular hiking spot in Steinkjer, Trøndelag. The hill reaches 337 meters above sea level. At the top is the café Peilehytta, which is open Sundays 11am-3pm.
The staircase itself was officially opened on June 14, 2025.
There are several starting points and route choices going up.
The marked route is about 4.2km and 290 meters of elevation gain, round trip.
