Kjeåsen

Kjeåsen lies on a mountain shelf, 530 steep meters above the Hardangerfjord. The old path to the farm was so difficult to walk that half of those who tried turned back. The Oslo girl Bjørg Wiik also climbed up here. She wanted to take care of her aunt, the last one still alive up on the mountain shelf. But after her aunt died, Bjørg stayed. She had discovered that Kjeåsen had something that the big city could never give her. Oddgeir Bruaset has met the woman who still lives at Kjeåsen, alone and at the age of 70.
