This is an alternative gravel road from Hagatjern to Vestfossen (or the other way around). By Norwegian measures, this isn't much of a scenic road, but there are viewpoints, and it's possible to get fairly close to Sirikjerke, which is the tallest mountain in Nedre Eiker county. Along the road, there are numerous small roads splitting off from the main - like logging roads. There is also a larger split breaking off south that I believe is posted here previously (Konnerud), but that is a detour now. Still - it's a few kilometers long, and there are a few nice fishing waters in the area - so it's worth taking a look. The road max min elevation is 36/412 meters, and Sirikjerke sits at 635 meters. If you are passing through the area, it's a great alternative to tarmac, and there are many options for a quick camping stop and/or hiking. It's a toll road, with a rate of 60NOK (card payment only), and as far as I could tell, a note at the toll booth says the entire road is not guaranteed to be cleared for snow during winter. However, that could mean that it's not implicitly closed and illegal to drive ther during winter - like many other similar roads. sirikjerkeveien-v1.gpx
