Ok so this afternoon sees us in Geiranger weathers not so good but hey ho it is october, entered in by the ferry from Hellesylt, wasn’t meant to but hey ho, this way we saw the Seven Sisters and the brother looking over them

Geiranger isn’t as big as I thought campsite pretty much empty after the summer (very wet one according to the locals and it’s not very good here for the next week or so).
So after here I think (not sure) but it’s us down south to pick up road7 towards Oslo and onto Sweden to do the moose safari, then back east towards Denmark (Sweden was never on the itinerary but Mrs Westy wants to see the moose’s

You only did that so we could have solar panels envy

Great pics. The weather is looking pretty decent.

Just a quick walk up the falls at the back of the campsite

And you can just see “Chloe” in the distance

The Humber looks a bit in flood Westy

I'd recommend the drive up to Dalsnibba. Well worth a visit as long as you get the views. You can look right down onto Gerainger village and the head of the Fjord.

No, it doesn't look like it. I think that's one of the viewpoints on the road to/from Grainger. Dalsnibba summit is much higher and accessed from a private toll road. The road leading to it runs directly to Grainger through the mountains. It was very cold last time we were there and the smaller lakes in the mountains were all frozen over. Beautiful views all round from the summit of Dalsnibba, mountains as far as the eye can see. Oh and there's a cafe and a gift shop!

 

[WESTY66]

What’s the road out of geiranger like towards dalsnibba, not that we’re doing it, we have low cloud and wet conditions here but both my satnavs are sending me back on the ferry towards Hellesylt I’m 5 tons in a fwd fiat

Agreed, sometimes have to wait for the view to appear though!

Doesn’t matter I’m over the top now, easy peasy

Sorry, been driving all morning and unloading the van. Only just logged in again!

 

[WESTY66]

Well hello again, nothing exciting to report, we left Geiranger up towards Dalsnibba, Mrs Westy doesn’t like narrow windy pass type roads so she wouldn’t let me stop and take any pics so we headed south and ended up taking the 51 down towards Gol, wow that was pretty desolate high and a bit windy and up at 4600ft

We are picking up road 7 as that will take us towards Sweden where we have to be next Monday
Tonight we just stopped in a P4N wild spot near the road, it was ok not much traffic but was ready for a stop and we were full of water diesel and empty of cassette and waste so didn’t need anywhere with amenities, it did us for the night
