Perhaps a stop in Dale or a trip over the spectacular Dalsfjord Bridge? From here, the tour continues to Sande.

The last 84 km is a national tourist route that starts along Viksdalsvatnet lake before the climb up to Gaularfjellet begins. A stop at Likholefossen waterfall is almost mandatory, where you can walk over the roaring and impressive waterfall. This day is full of twists and turns and great experiences, and you can make another stop at Utsikten before starting the steep section of winding roads down to the fjord and the road to Balestrand. On arrival at Kviknes, you can really treat yourself to a cold drink and enjoy the view from the lovely garden with the beautiful view with old or new friends.
