This video is dedicated to the ride down to Lysabotn, going through the tunnel which turns 180 degrees and passes under itself, impressive to say the least inside the dark enviroment inside a mountain. Once at the tiny village of Lysabotn the only way out of there is by the small ferry or turn around and go back the way you came from. With the help of a young couple who understood the language we were able to book a ticket on line just as the ferry arrived. The 42-kilometre (26 mi) long fjord lies in the municipalities of Strand and Sandnes, about 25 kilometres (16 mi) east of the city of Stavanger. The name means light fjord, and is said to be derived from the lightly coloured granite rocks along its sides. It is particularly well known for the huge Preikestolen cliff overlooking the fjord. Because of the inhospitable, mountainous terrain, the fjord is only lightly populated and only has two villages on its length - Forsand and Lysebotn, located at opposite ends of the fjord. We chose to disembark not in Forsand but in the little port of Lauvvik which gave us easier acces to our nights host Jan, in Algard. Many thanks Jan for your hospitality and kindness. Those sanwhiches were well appreciated the following day.
