N/A
The Steinsdalsfossen waterfall near Norheimsund is truly spectacular. You can walk behind the waterfall without getting wet, allowing for a unique perspective. Formed in 1699 when the river sought a new course, Steinsdalsfossen boasts a height of approximately 50 meters. A pathway leads behind the waterfall, providing unobstructed access to the space between the rock face and the cascading water, making it one of Norway's most visited waterfalls. Tourist information and public restrooms are conveniently located at the parking area. A short path over an old stone arch bridge will guide you to the waterfall. If you wish, you can also take a break at a charming café situated just behind the bridge, where you can enjoy the soothing sound of the rushing stream. We will spend 25 minutes here, and the drive to our next stop will take about 15 minutes.
