Låtefossen
A double waterfall beside Route 13 south of Odda, where two streams merge beneath the roadside stone bridge; the drop is about 165 m, and you will get misted just standing by the road.
Låtefossen is about 15 km south of Odda. Two streams split at the top and pour down, merging beneath the six-arched stone bridge on National Route 13 before flowing into the lake. It is one of Norway's most photographed waterfalls. There is a small roadside parking lot and a souvenir shop. Entry is free, and a stop of 20–30 minutes is enough. When the mist is heavy the road gets slippery, so watch for passing traffic. It can be visited together with the Røldal Stave Church and Espelandsfossen to the south as one scenic drive.
