Vøringsfossen is the largest waterfall in Norway and has been a tourist attraction since the early 1800’s. The 182-metre-high waterfall can be seen from several lookout points along the dramatic edge of the deep ravine. Several smaller waterfalls also flow through the site, creating an atmosphere of running water, frightening heights and stunning views. Despite being one of the most visited attractions in Norway, the area has been inaccessible and dangerous, and the scene of several tragic accidents.
