Thanks everyone! I’m glad to hear that I can leave the poles at home! So excited for this hike!

The description isn’t very specific, but it looks like take the train up and we start the hike at the Vatnahalsen Hotel. We hike down the mountain and there is a photo opp at Kjos Waterfall.

We are doing the Flam Railway and Valley hike through Royal Caribbean. The description says “Tour involves 6 to 7 miles of extensive downhill walking over even, gravel and rocky surfaces.” My question is - do people typically bring hiking poles? How strenuous is this really? I really don’t want to pack my poles if I don’t have to, but if the hike is that “hard” I will bring them. My hiking shoes already take up a lot of space and we are trying not to check bags from the U.S. Thanks so much in advance!
