A nice selection of switchbacks through some great scenary. Because of it's tight and twisty nature, it's difficult to exceed the speed limit seriously and so makes a nice exception from the expensive speeding fines in this country!!

Good route, and between Gvarv and Holtås (midway) you can do the East side of the river.

An orgy of blind corners. Thats what await you if you do this route. Lots of fun corners, but very poor visibility. A few 20km/h turns/underpasses under the railway. Fun, fun, fun for those that like that sort of thing.

The first part of this route goes up the Hanekleiv hills from Sande. It has lots of fun corners and was recently (2007) repaved, so it is in good condition. From then you head North towards Eikern lake.

At Eidsfoss Verk there is a very nice small shop and a good café / restaurant where it is well worth stopping. There is also a good community museum for the previous mill.

Going north it starts off with lots and lots of nice curves, then turns into more of a mountain road with some hairpins and GREAT scenery. Surface going down the north side is not great so just take it easy and enjoy the view. Roadwork ongoing on north side though so improving.
