Good path in beautiful nature, the river rushes over the stones, what more could you want for hikers?

View from Varden over Moldefjorden

Highlight • Viewpoint

Of course we walked up, buses and taxis go up there🥴 but I can understand that with the view, it's of course a highlight for non-hikers too.
The restaurant was closed precisely because of a bus load.
