Norwegen und insbesondere die Westküste sind nicht für den Wintertourismus geeignet. Derzeit ist Odda aufgrund von sechs Fels-/Erdrutschen und Überschwemmungen isoliert. Hardangervidda und die Hardangerbrücke sind wegen Wind gesperrt. Sie können immer noch mit dem Haukeli von Ost nach West fahren, aber bei Windgeschwindigkeiten von 50 m/s in Røldal würde ich das nicht tun.
Zu dieser Jahreszeit bleiben wir zu Hause.

Helt idioti at man ikke bevilger nok penger til å få en trygg og ordentlig vei.
Det er fullstendig ubegripelig. Her har vi en samferdselsminister som aktivt jobber for å bruke +54 milliarder på en ubrukelig jernbane som kun går til Fredrikstad, og så sliter man med dette siden krigens dager?
Sure you can stay at home, if your home is safe to stay in, which isn’t the case for everyone😅 some people have to evacuate almost every time this happens (at least once a year lately), others when something local hits them extra badly. It does seem to get worse? The local kommune is at least getting pretty good at handling it🤷♀️ not that it’s anything new but the frequency I do feel like is increasing.
I live in the West and when there’s a lot of rain, I’m very mindful of where I drive even if the road isn’t closed. I like to stay alive and whole. 🙂 One flying or rolling rock at the wrong time is enough. I personally have experienced being in a 15-25 minute window of being crushed by a rock twice. Once by foot, went hiking our popular local route. Came back down and a big rock was standing, embedded into the ground, in the middle of the path. Another time a very large rock came down and almost hit the road I was driving on. My sister was nearly swept over a waterfall by a small creek, that because of rain turned into a large river when she came back down from a hike. I’ve seen the ski tracks of people who died a day later in a snow storm. And so on. It’s not always easy to survive in the mountains in the West!
I also drove over Haukelifjell for every holiday when I lived in the East, for almost a decade. The statistic during the winter was that the road was closed 50% of the time on that exact day I planned on going over. That’s how often we have storms.
