Roldal October Break

We took a long drive to Roldal to checkout a company cabin we've never stayed at before located in an area more famous for it's skiing and summer hikes than autumn walks. All the information center in the area were closed for the season (summer) and we were told they won't open gain until the next snow fall in winter.

The cabin (it's actually a 3rd floor fully furnished apartment in a medium sized apartment complex) was located in a nice spot but in the midst of a populated area and a hotel in front of it! The surrounding roads (leading to Kinsarvik, Haukefjell, Sauda) are in the middle of what could be some of the nicest stretch of road and countryside in these southern parts. There were numerous waterfalls, glaciers, fjordes and forests view to gawk over. In winter the area is touted to be the place with the biggest amount of snowfall, undertsandably it's reputation as a premium sky spot.

It's always nice to go on this short trip as a family together ... every member cooped up in the car going on long drives, or relaxing in a room catching up on family together time.
