The steep drop by Fossen cliff has been the biggest challenge for those who wished to make a road over Kvamskogen through the years.

The Vosso is Hordaland's main artery, she has never run more richly than in our times, and no other river in western Norway carries so much water. The increase in the amount of water comes mainly from hydropower development, due to the transfer of water from other water systems. Climate change can also be a reason that the Vosso carries more water than before.
