In the middle of Fulufjäll National Park lies Sweden's highest waterfall, Njupeskär. There is no road leading there, and no tourist buses bring the masses there. Only those who undertake a short hike can observe this natural spectacle in all seasons. On the way between the visitor center and the waterfall, you pass a small rest hut from which you can already see the waterfall. In winter, it freezes over completely and sometimes you can even see ice climbers.
