Exploring several grottos in Dumdalen

Datum:
12.07.2023
Tourcharakter:
Spaziergang
Tourlänge:
2:00h
Entfernung:
2,8km

After a night at Jotunheimen Fjellstue, we decided to explore Dumdalen and (some of) the caves there. Parking right next to the road that leads further up to Sognefjellet, we used trails on both sides of Dumma to get up and down Dumdalen. While we certainly did not see all of the caves, we easily found several of them. Next to some of them, we also identified the markers (like "G3", "G10", etc.). The first aspect of this grottos that impressed us was the matter of fact that not so small Dumma disappears several times entirely in them. So it's not just interesting caves, but also an energetic mountain stream that rushes through several of them! While we mostly looked at these caves from the outside, we could not resist and also entered two (or three) of them. Especially >>>

Sagasøylen at Elvesæter

Datum:
11.07.2023
Tourcharakter:
Spaziergang
Tourlänge:
0:15h
Entfernung:
0,1km

While driving up to Sognefjellet from Lom, we came by Elvesæter in Leirdalen. Spotting Sagasøylen (or Eidvollsmonumentet) by Wilhelm Rasmussen right next to the road, we made a short stop to have a look. This over 30 meters high column -- in "the middle of nowhere" -- is definitely a sight, also with its interesting history (originally planned as a monument to be erected in Oslo in front of Stortinget, it eventually survived due to the private initiative of Elvesæter hotel). Selected photos are available as Google photo album . See also the related FB-page Hiking around Bergen, Norway .
