Store Vargevatnet - Sogn og Fjordane


This is a short (8km) but unusual gravel road from FV50 to Store Vargevatnet. Unusual in the sense that it is one of the few roads I know of where you can drive (toll-free!) from 1150 metres above sea level to nearly 1500m.  The road is narrow, and during the high season - be aware of camper vans and other not so suited vehicles.

Camping is possible along most of the track, and the amount of possible hiking trips in the area is extensive, including a couple of small glaciers. 

The road was built to bring materials and machinery into the Aurland II hydro power plant system, and a prerequisite for the aproval to the project was that the roads would be open to the public after the project completed.
