Oppheimsvatnet
A peaceful mountain lake beside the E16 on the way from Voss to Stalheim, which was a holiday resort for European visitors in the 19th century.
Oppheimsvatnet lies beside the E16 road about 25 km north of Voss. The lakeside is home to the small village of Oppheim, and in the late 19th century the Frammenes Hotel here drew many British and German visitors. Today it is still a good place to stop and take photos on the drive to Stalheim and Gudvangen. The lake is calm and often reflects the surrounding mountains, and in summer you can fish and go boating. It is about a 25-minute drive, and can be combined with Stalheim and Tvindefossen.
