Lake Sperillen

2km/1.25mi from Hønefoss, at Hov, Road 240 goes off on the right. Road 16 follows the valley of the Begna (Ådalselv), passing through stretches of forest, and comes in 29km/18mi, at Finsand (alt. 155m/509ft), to Lake Sperillen (148m/486ft; 23km/15mi long, up to 2km/1.25mi wide, up to 108m/350ft deep). It then runs for 26km/16mi along the east side of the lake. Soon after the Buttingsrud camping site the church of Viker can be seen on the opposite side of the lake. Just before Nes there is a fine view of the church with its slender spire (1860).
