Sohlbergplassen
Viewpoint · Norway
A cantilevered viewing platform built around living pine trunks on the Rondane tourist road, framing the same view of Lake Atnsjøen and its round-shouldered peaks that Harald Sohlberg painted in 1914's Winter Night in the Mountains. Birch on the slopes below turns gold from late August into September.
