The waterfall path

The path follows old trails that have been stamped by livestock and people. Along the way you will see 12 large waterfalls and 6 lakes. This splendid Nature path follows the main branch of the Gaular watercourse, which became a protected State asset in 1993 after many year´s of dispute.

Fossestien is distinctly marked with red F`s, arrows and signs with names and distance. The trek wanders alternately on paths, wooden bridges and footbridges along the river and in diverse forest terrain. You will pass by several clusters of summer pasture huts. One group of huts is still in use today as a mountain pasture farm. The lowest section has a narrow gorge with steep sides, a little canyon.

Wander through luxuriant vegetation

The path winds its way through luxuriant vegetation, teeming with local flora and fauna, but also close by cultivated landscape, past farms with livestock etc. Take a container with you, there are plenty of wild berries to find and many types of wild mushrooms. There are trout to be found along the entire river and in all lakes.

4 places are organised with signposts

You can start your ramble from any point you like. 4 places are organised with signposts, maps and parking areas. They are (in order from above):

• Torsnesstølen
• Longestølen
• Likholefossen waterfall
• Eldal

The trail goes over broken terrain so you need sturdy footwear. The rambling path is not suited to cycling or riding on horseback.

Thank you for

• Shutting the gate behind you
• Keeping your dog on a leash
• Not throwing your rubbish on the ground
