In October we made last trip in 2020 season to beautiful Briksdalsbreen glacier in Jostedalsbreen National Park and went up to 1011 meter at Loen Skylift. Loen Skylift has a gradient up to 60° and is one of the steepest in the world.

We made 1230 km in our round trip. During first day we visited beautiful village in mountains - Skjeringsdalen and camped for night near lake Oppstrynsvatn. Next morning greeted us with fog coming from the sea and packed between high mountains along the lake.
During second day we took a ride to Lovatnet to enjoy autumn colors at this spectacular lake and take a ride on Loen Skilift. After a night at Nordfjord we went to lake Olden and further to parking near Briksdalsbreen and took a walk to the glacier. Autumn was already there and the closer to glacier the stronger was the feeling of upcoming winter.
On the way back we enjoyed sunset at the river Stryneelva and camped near river Finna.
We tried to drive as fast as possible as strong wind hurried winter to us with freezing winds and snowfalls.
