Flat parking with views of the lake. Interesting war memorial at the site. Road noisy at times but not too bad.
Peaceful night on the southbound side. Picnic tables and bins. Not much scope for dog walking and on north bound side we avoided trail to lake due to waste left there. Memorial to D/F Hydro on either side
Overnight stay possible. From Saturday to Sunday there was little traffic too. However, the forest on both sides is extremely polluted with human waste. We stayed on the side by the steam engine. Only for spending the night.
Beautiful view and a little history about the Second World War.
Parking lot with a very beautiful view, although there are once again people using the right side as a toilet. There is a rubbish bin and a small seating area.
Part of UNESCO drive drive. Site is a memorial to the 14 Norwegian and 4 German soldier were killed when D/S Hydro were blown up during WWll in order to prevent heavy water being shipped to Nazi Germany. Great view, quiet for a overnight stop, and some rock scrambling down to the sea for a better view of the lake. Short track on other side of the road to walk the dog. Great view
Great for stopping for lunch. We wouldn't stay overnight: it's by the road and there is no access to the lake. Nice view, though!
More suitable for a break than an overnight stay. Anyone who doesn't need a view will certainly find it quite peaceful in the aforementioned side road on the mountain side. In early August it was still sunny until almost 6:50 p.m.
Beautiful view and little traffic at night. In the evening, local young people briefly gathered with loud music. On the mountain side there is a dead-end track with a parking space that cannot be seen from the road.
