3Trolltunga, Norway

This striking and otherworldly rock formation in western Norway has become a magnet for selfie-taking hikers.

Some people camp so they can be there to see the rock at sunrise or sunset. Tourists can stand (or sit) right on the edge of Trolltunga (the troll’s tongue), at their own risk. Sadly, an Australian woman slipped and fell to her death here in 2015. Visitors are advised to be mindful of the often strong winds that whip around this isolated spot. Although hiking to Trolltunga alone is permitted from June to the end of August, guides are strongly recommended.
