Been here?
This small parking area by a swimming hut is currently closed, with access blocked and no-camping signs reported. When accessible, it had a beautiful view, a small beach and a shelter with a grill. The approach is very steep and the road above can be heard at night, so overnight stays are not currently possible.

Closed: “no camping”; entry is impossible. What a shame…Translating

Great parking area in a small town. Warning: the approach is very steep! With our medium-wheelbase Sprinter it was impossible; the waste-water tank would have scraped. At the beginning of September there was no prohibition sign for campers.Translating
Status August 2023: Place was accessible. Nice place for a night. You can hear the road above but it was ok. Nice view, no people, swimming possible when you are lucky to have sun in Norway.
Unfortunately, the place is inaccessible. A chain blocks the entrance to the parking area. What a shame—the view would have been magnificent for a picnic stop. We parked in the restaurant car park just above.Translating
Unfortunately, it is closed with a no-camping sign. Such a shame; the place would be beautiful :(Translating
Three stars because the view is very beautiful, you can be alone, and fishing is good. BUT: You can really hear the road leading out of the tunnel at night. We stayed here during the week, and one truck after another roared through the tunnel. This place is suitable only for small motorhomes.Translating
Narrower site, probably difficult with a motorhome. Small cove with a beach for swimming. There is even a barbecue. A good spot below the main road (quieter) for one or two nights.Translating
Beautiful view. Perfect for fishing (I secured my dinner every evening). Small pebble beach for swimming. Small wooden hut with a barbecue and seating available. Unfortunately, poor access to fresh water (waterfall) for washing dishes or showering. Also relatively noisy because of a busy road about 30–40 meters away.Translating
Very steep entrance; with a motorhome, you can only get out backwards and with plenty of momentum. The place itself is very beautiful, but it is very noisy, so we drove on.Translating
