Norway Summer 2022

What a nice Panorama view point over Molde! I even found a nice place where I could park for the night up there, but unfortunately there was a lot of wind and rain, so I decided to look for a more sheltered place. Still beautiful walk and view. 😊Read more

What a beautiful dale with so much history. 😃
Good that I did my research, otherwise I maybe wouldn't have noticed the houses of Urasætra. They were built into the ground as protection against landslides. The lake known as Lygnstøylvatnet was formed by a rock fall from Keipen in 1908. Beneath the waters of the lake, you can still see remains of the old road, the foundations of the farmhouses and the gateway. I did not bring my diving equipment, so I could only see it on the pictures 😉😁.

There is a breath of history over the name Norangsdalen. At the turn of the 18th century, tourist ships anchored up at Øye. Many a famous name was transported by pony and trap along the ancient road through the valley to Hellesylt. Afther the "Silver cruise" in 1993 to celebrate the Silver wedding of the King and Queen of Norway, Norangsdalen was given the name "The Queen Route". The famous Hotel Union Øye is an attraction in itself. The hotel was "discovered" by Europe's aristocracy and social elite in 1881, and has since then welcomed many famous Kaisers and Kings.
