This
is an impressive road in the high mountains of Rogaland and Vest Agder -
highest point 932 metres - some of it single carriageway with passing places
- with impressive scenery and weather. The 27 hair-pin bends and tunnel down to Lysebotn are impressive and can be seen from Øygardsstølen, the cafe-restaurant and viewing point near the top. You will see thousands of little cairns around the high point - who knows why - but get out and build your own, when you come this way. Two of the main reasons to travel this road - apart from to experience the road - are the walk to Kjerag and the ferry through Lysefjord, back towards Stavanger Map reference: By car: From the E39, take RV45 to Sinnes and Sirdal. Turn left in Sinnes towards Suleskard. Just before Suleskard , turn left onto the Lysebotn road Parking: various places along the way. Distance from Stavanger: 150 km |
