Garvannsfossene Waterfall

Highlight • Waterfall

This is a nice place to take a break, although we were shocked to see that some visitors had carelessly left their rubbish here. They were definitely not Norwegians!

Waterfall with small weir in the forest

Highlight • Waterfall

In June there was not enough water for a small waterfall. For this reason alone, the hike should not be undertaken.

View of Rjukanfossen

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Rjukanfossen has lost its power since the water is diverted in pipelines to the Vemork power station. The waterfall can only be experienced on the last weekend in July on the occasion of the "Marispelet".
