Geocache Description:

Skjerjavassdammen is a large dam at ca 800 meters above sea level in the Stølsheimen mountain range.


The water from lake Skjerjavatnet is used in the Vemundsbotn and Matre power stations in Masfjorden kommune.

There is a gravel road going almost all the way to the cache. However, an avalanche has damaged the road so it is not open for cars anymore, only bikes and feet.

Access: Drive to Modalen, go left at Helland and follow the road. Throughout the Hellandsdalen valley you will have a magnificent view! The road takes you more that 800 vertical meters up into the mountains!

This area is a popular starting point for hiking in Stølsheimen. There are marked trails to the Skavlabu and Vardadalsbu mountain cabins, see www.turistforeningen.no for information.
