Hardangervidda I

The Hardangervidda is the largest mountain plateau in Europe. The highest point on the plateau is at the top of the Hardangerjøkulen glacier, which reaches a height of 1,863 m. The height of the Hardangervidda only allows a quite cold, alpine climate which enables the presence of arctic species like the arctic fox and the snowy owl. Wild reindeers are also found in that region.
In other words: just wonderful!









And this is just the first part when we were driving through - the second part will show pictures when we were hiking there ;)
