Park at the nearsest camping site. There is an exit possibilty if you paddle all the way to the right.
Atmosphere
Its one of the best spots in Norway. Bring a thick wetsuit or else you going to freeze your balls off. The locals are nice the only problem is the nature. Be careful with it or else we will be thrown away.
General
One of the best in scandinavia
