Folgefonna is Norway's southernmost glacier. From Sunnhordland the glacier can be seen from a distance as a white coat covering the plateau. In winter and spring the glacier is covered by snow and indistinguishable from the general snow cover. There are no roads within the national park but in summer there is access by car to the glacier at the summer ski resort in Jondal. Bondhusbreen branch can be visited on foot from Sunndal. Warning: Glaciers are treacherous and visitors should keep a generous distance to the glacier front and never walk on the ice. Big chunks of ice can fall of any time.
