Lysebotn


Today I'm brining my Steemit friends on a trip from Lysebotn up the mountain and back home to the flatlands where I live.
Lysebotn is a small village at the end of Lysefjord, you can only access this village on boat or by the only road over the mountain. this road that I'm showing you today is one of the famous hairpinned roads in the world according to Dangerousroads.org


I start this trip down in Lysebotn at the ferry pier
