Vesteråsfjellet
Vesteråsfjellet sits along the Geiranger–Trollstigen byway at 618 feet, facing 240° with terrain dropping 618 feet within 600 meters. Keipen rises to the southwest at 1.6 miles and 4,460 feet, while Teinnosa is visible to the west-northwest at 4.2 miles and 4,680 feet. The facing direction points toward sunset, about 30° off square with the sun's path, which affects how light falls across the terrain through the day. At the June solstice, sunrise comes at 03:40 and sunset at 23:28, giving long daylight hours, while the December solstice narrows this to sunrise at 09:57 and sunset at 15:03. Equinox timing falls in between, with the March equinox running from 06:34 to 18:45 and the September equinox from 07:15 to 19:35. The overlook lies between Løstad, the previous stop on the byway, and Storsæterfossen, the next one along the route.
