Bondhusbreen, Glacial formation in Kvinnherad Municipality, Norway.
Bondhusbreen extends 4 kilometers from the Folgefonna ice mass, dropping 1,100 meters in elevation through the Bondhusdalen valley near Maurangsfjorden.
During the 1800s, workers extracted ice blocks from Bondhusbreen and transported them via the Isvegen road to ships waiting at Hardangerfjord for export.
The glacier represents a vital component of Norwegian natural heritage, contributing to hydroelectric power generation through the Mauranger Power Station.
Visitors access the glacier through marked trails from the parking area in Sunndal, with fees of 100 NOK required for vehicle parking.
The water flowing beneath Bondhusbreen travels through engineered tunnels, generating electricity while offering insights into glacier movement patterns.
