    A gigantic spectacle when the locks open just a little at 3 p.m. and the masses of water pour roaring through the gorge.
    Worth it
    a) Being on time: It's all over in less than 10 minutes.
    And b) visit one of the viewpoints that can only be reached on foot via the hiking trail on the east side above the gorge. From there you have a magnificent view of the spectacle.

    Unfortunately, the locks are only open at certain times. The waterfall can only be admired when Vattenfall opens the tap.
    May, June and September: Saturday at 3 p.m.
    July and August: daily at 3 p.m.

    The Hojum and Olidan hydropower plants on the 32-meter-high Trollhättan Falls in the Göta älv, Sweden's most water-rich river, provide electricity. The Trollhatte Canal takes boat traffic around the waterfalls.

    It is interesting to visit the Trollhatte Canal Museum. It is close to the upper lock. Here you get a good insight into the history of the canal.
