Sollihogda: Skaret
Among the places of Eastern Norway, Sollihøgda stands out for its position on the wooded high ground of Krokskogen. The E16 crosses the Skaret area here, forming part of the main road connection between Oslo and Bergen. Broad carriageways, engineered rock cuttings and grassy verges give this stretch a distinctly modern character, while conifer forest and exposed bedrock shape the terrain around it. Sollihøgda belongs to the upland belt west of Oslo, where transport routes leave the capital region for the inland districts around Ringerike. It is a useful point of orientation for journeys across this section of Norway.

Hallingdal and Numedal, long valleys framed by forests and mountain plateaus, define much of Buskerud - farming, forestry and outdoor travel have shaped communities from the interior towards the Oslofjord. The Drammenselva runs south through Drammen and enters the Drammensfjord, while Hardangervidda reaches into the county’s west and gives the landscape a markedly upland character. Kongsberg is closely tied to Norway’s silver-mining history: silver was discovered there in 1623, and the town developed around the mines. Geilo and the wider Hallingdal area are established bases for winter sports and summer mountain trips. Move on to other webcams in the region to compare landscapes and settings around Buskerud.

Norway has served as a seafaring link between the North Atlantic and northern Europe since the Viking Age. Its long coastline is cut by fjords, while the Lofoten archipelago rises sharply from the Norwegian Sea and the mountains of Jotunheimen include Galdhøpiggen, Norway’s highest peak. Bergen’s Bryggen, the former Hanseatic wharf, recalls centuries of maritime trade. Farther north, Sámi culture remains an essential part of the country’s identity.
