Eide — Valsøybotnen – Roaming Around

This post is part of adventure Scandinavia 2019

Day 23 I hit the road with grey sky at 9am and from 11am enjoyed sunny weather until the end of the day. After 3 hours on the road I reachd the 1,257-metre-long Gjemnessund Bridge, the second longest suspension bridge in Norway and around 2pm I arrived in Kanestraum and boarded the ferry across the Halsafjord to Halsa.

I had booked a Airbnb at a farm and the bottom at the Valsøyfjord and received instructions to help me finding the farm with the booking confirmation. But I took the wrong way, following a steep track where I had some difficulty to push my bike. The track ended at a closed gate I fortunatly was able to open and I found myself in a meadow. There was a farm below and I rushed down the meadow to discover that I had eventually reached the Airbnb.

My friendly host offered me to wash my sweaty clothes in the washing machine. I took a shower and had a quickly prepared trekking dinner. Astonishing Norway: the farm was in the middle of nowhere, but offered a 500/500Mbps highspeed internet access.
