Things to do on a rainy day

Tindesenteret – museum and climbing centre

It is impossible to overlook Norsk Tindesenter when you are in Åndalsnes centre. The special building houses one of Norway's highest climbing walls but also easier bouldering walls. You will also find a museum showing the development of rock climbing in Norway. Test how it feels to lie in a hanging tent or to base jump yourself!
