About
At Bu, there is a parking lot with a nice viewpoint.
The Hardanger Bridge is 1380 metres long and the longest suspension bridge in Norway. At Bu (south end of the bridge) there is a parking and picnic area, public toilet and a viewpoint to the bridge, accessible to disabled people. At Vallavik (north end of the bridge) there is also a parking area and a viewpoint to the bridge.
You can walk or cycle across the bridge. The view from the bridge is excellent. Enjoy the fjord landscape, or the construction itself: the main span between the towers is 1310 metres, the total length 1380 metres, the towers stand around 200 metres above the fjord, and clearance below is 55 metres. The walk is also suitable with wheelchairs and baby strollers. However, the slopes from the parking areas to the bridge are a bit steep (especially from Bu and down to the bridge).
