Månafossen

Månafossen
Månafossen is a waterfall in Gjesdal Municipality in Rogaland county, Norway. The 92-metre (302 ft) tall waterfall is located along the river Månaåna, about 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) east of the end of the Frafjorden where the village of Frafjord is located. The waterfall is in a fairly isolated area. There is a parking area nearby with a steep, rough 250-metre (820 ft) hiking trail up a mountainside to see the waterfall. The hike takes about 50 minutes.

Chain rope to the top

Getting up to the top of the waterfall meant using posts and chains to get up the steeper parts of the climb. Adrian and his sister, who was afraid of heights, were nearing the top of the mountain, but there was still a bit of scrambling to do to get to the top of the falls. It was definitely worth the effort.

Thanks Ann. It was a bit of a struggle to get up to this point, especially for a 'Silver Surfer' :). There are a few ladders, but mostly on the steep rocks it's just posts and chains, so one has to haul ones-self up..
