Elvåga has been used as drinking water since 1941 and supplies 10% of Oslo's population.
In 1964 a 14 m high dam was built south of Turisthytte Mariholtet, separating the so-called Fri-Elvåga. In the northernmost area, separated by the dam, bathing and fishing is permitted; in the south, this is not permitted because it is used as a drinking water reservoir.
