Travel Norway #20 - Where winter & autumn meets - Autumnal visit in Viromdalen and Innerdalen

October 2018 · 5 min read

Hi there Friends!!


Welcome all to my new Travel Norway post - today I want to share one of my amazing visits in Trollheimen national park.
This time will be little shorter but still I hope You will like it, because the conditions and views were amazing and unique.

What was unique? The weather conditions create amazing looking landscapes - all the shadowed ground were covered by thick hoarfrost (is this the right word? ;)). In the same time - sunny areas were beautifully yellow and orange, still covered with autumnal colours.

But what can say more , just look at this:

Original photo is a big panoramic image, made from several vertical shots.
The area around the river were covered with ice thick layer of icy crystals everywhere. Magical land!

The valley is called Viromdalen - we can reach it by driving north from Sunndalsøra town situated by the shores of Sunndalsfjorden fiord. Really nice area to visit!

I stopped by the road in few spots to catch the amazing light and views. The road was very slippy by the way, so it was really hard to drive faster than 20km/h. I don't use spiked wheels so always have to be careful in Norway, many roads here are kept in a "white" conditions - the snow is being removed but the salt is used only on the main roads, rest of smaller ones are really icy. But, back to the trip...

Following the road we are finally reaching parking place - in the same town - this is the end of public road - further up the mountains can drive only permited cars and people who live and work in tourist shelter in Innerdalen.

Frm the car park we can take the path up to the Innerdalen - the place which I presented already in the Travel Norway series some time ago. Check the link below if You are interested in getting more details and pictures of it.

The road from Viromdalen to Innerdalen:

As You can see, the weather was fantastic! The warm autumnal light made the colours much more saturated - great contrast between blue sky, yellow forests and blue-white cold valleys. Amazing conditions, fantastic photographic trip!

Here You can see and hear the amazing autumn which was still present in the mountain forest there:

After reaching the Innerdalen valley - I found that the biggest lake in the valley are partly frozen already. I went to the lake shore to catch some motives. The views were great! Water level on the lake was very low, autumn that year was long, sunny and dry - not like this year's.

Freezing water create fantastic patterns on ice cover. which was still very thin. It was imposible to walk on it but I catched few nice motives just by the shore:

You can visit the same place many times and discover it in the new way. The season of the year, weather conditions, some other natural conditions - like this low water level, are changing the same landscapes in so many ways... If You think about this and think about how many great places You can visit in Norway - giving infinite number of fantastic photo-outdoor-workshops oportunities!

Life is simply to short, wish to be the vampire ;)... then I could have enough time to reach some of the places and experience more fantastic stuff.

The view on frozen Innerdalsvatnet lake and Innerdalstarnet mountain - iconic view from Innerdalen valley:
