Mountains and expanses

This is our longest trip and involves both mountains and fjords. We’ll head up to the Hardangervidda plateau and continue west towards Lysebotn to experience the opportunities that the Lysefjord has to offer. On this trip, you may also want to bring some food from the hotel so that you have the flexibility to have an open-air lunch either on the plateau or along the fjord. There are also opportunities for a stop at Mjonøy bakery to stock up on goodies for your coffee.

This is a real long-distance trip with incredibly beautiful scenery and experiences, where you get both bag and baggage. The nature at Haukeli is fantastic and Lysefjord's opportunities are many... Just enjoy the impressions from A to Z. NB: Please note that the Google map shows the wrong route from Suleskard to Valle in winter as it is not possible to use winter closed roads in the routes in winter. Verify that the route goes directly from Suleskard to Valle before driving.

The tour starts along Vråvatn with everything from gentle sweepers to tight, fun hairpins up towards Åmdals verk and then down towards Dalen and up to Vinjesvingen via Byrte. After such a good start, we recommend a stop at Mjonøy Bakeri so that you have something for your coffee throughout the day. The tour continues up towards Haukeli and it is an experience to drive these roads. It’s also possible to drive around the tunnel, but keep in mind that the trip is long so you have to watch your time. The mountain section is beautiful to drive with nice curves and good flow. We recommend a coffee or food break at Haukeliseter before starting the descent to Røldal and further down along Suldalsvannet and on towards Lauvik, which offers many opportunities for experiences along the Lysefjord. Remember to check ferry timetables on your way from Røldal. Continue towards Suleskard and feel free to take a trip to Lysebotn if time permits. The Lyseveien road that leads to the lookout point and café in Lysebotn is a piece of Norwegian fairground road with 40 to 80 turns that are absolutely fantastic. The trip over Suleskard towards Valle is fantastic, just enjoy yourself, but remember that the road is narrow and there may well be a sheep lying alongside the road enjoying the summer. Continuing towards Vrådal, there is a great finish over Hallbjønnsekken and the fun road along Vråvatn. This is a long trip and do not embark on this if you do not want a lot of driving.
