A wall of numbered hairpins climbing from the head of the Lysefjord.
The Lysevegen climbs out of Lysebotn at the head of the Lysefjord on a staircase of tight numbered hairpins, including a spiral tunnel inside the mountain, to the high moorland above. Mind the very tight hairpins, the single-lane sections, and the gated tunnel.
