You will meet us in the morning breeze from the glacier. In anticipation of a different landscape ahead we find our way past running water and over burnished slopes of naked rock. At length we'll find ourselves up on the horizon and the glacier lies before us.
Interminable forces harnessed in ice! We rope ourselves together and step out onto Folgefonna. We set off, through frozen valleys and past conical towers of ice, in search of a fairy tale in blue. If you seek excitement you may climb the 20-meter high precipices of ice. If, on the other hand, you seek a more meditative experience you will find it as we cross the thousand-year-old desert of ice; apparently at rest, but in perpetual change. Moving constantly towards its inevitable fate in the emerald waters of Lake Jukla (Juklavatnet). You will feel your spikes biting into the ice and the pleasure of teamwork with those who share the same climbing rope. You are safe in an alien world! Finally you will feel how the white plateau lifts you up to give you a breathtaking view of the oceans to the west. Down at the fjord once more you will be embraced by pale greens of young birches on the hillsides. In a warm evening breeze you sail into the setting sun aboard Jondal`s old "church boat". We say farewell beneath red sails, and you travel home with the untouched glacier landscape and Hardangerfjord branded into your memory for ever!
