Some parts are demanding and steep, slippery when wet. The hike takes you into the Hardangervidda National Park, the largest in Norway.After parking, hike along the gravel road to the first waterfall Tveitafossen. From here there are two options: 1) Follow a partly quite steep trail marked with red Ts, from behind the power station.
