Loen Skylift Summit Station & View of Nordfjord

The cable car is Europe's steepest gondola lift and certainly a highlight. Everyone has to decide for themselves whether the prices are justified. They are not family friendly. But the staff does! Of course, you have to take credit for the fact that the system represented a huge project and is very elaborate and beautifully designed. In addition, there are of course significantly fewer users and fewer days of use per year than in the tourist strongholds in Austria or South Tyrol.
The mountain station is the starting point for a number of well-marked and interesting hikes. For us it was a very nice day of hiking. Not cheap but worth the price.
