"Foot of the Mountain" is a song by Norwegian band A-ha, released as the lead single from their ninth studio album of the same name (2009).

In May 2009, the band performed the song on the show Germany's Next Top Model[5] hosted by Heidi Klum and on The Dome alongside fellow Norwegian Alexander Rybak.

On 11 June 2009 at 8:13 CEST the music video premiered simultaneously on four major German networks, namely ProSieben, Sat.1, kabel eins and N24.

In the documentary A-ha: The Success Story, songwriter Waaktaar-Savoy stated that although he loved living in New York, he "often wondered whether I would be happier out in the open, by the foot of the mountain", when asked about the song's chorus.
