City: Eidfjord

Information

Vøringfossen is one of the most visited waterfalls in Norway. The falls are 183 m high and located in Eidfjord not far from Highway 7, which connects Oslo with Bergen.

Bjoreia, the small river that flows into the Vøringfossen, has a hydroelectric dam in the valley Sysendalen above the falls.
In summer, the flow increased to 12 cubic meters per second. This natural speed is breathtaking and therefore the Voringfossen ideally become a tourist attraction and a landmark in Norway.
