Waterfalls of Møre og Romsdal

Romsdalen is a spectacular valley that some consider to rival Yosemite Valley in terms of sheer magnitude and waterfalls. Flanked by the tallest overhanging vertical cliff in the country in Trollveggen and the Norwegian Matterhorn called Romsdalshorn, numerous waterfalls line this awesome valley. Among the waterfalls are Vermafossen, Døntefossen, and Gravdefossen. The valley also once featured one of the tallest waterfalls in the world in Mongefossen before hydroelectric developments pretty much cut off its flow.

Trollstigen (translated as the Troll Ladder) is a sinuous road that switches back steeply between the waterfalls Stigfossen and "Trollfossen" (Tverrdalsfossen) at the head of Isterdalen.

In Eikesdalen, you'll find one of the tallest waterfalls in the world in Mardalsfossen. This waterfall flows only during the summer months in a compromise between environmentalists and the power company controlling it.

The county also features some of spectacular off-the-beaten-path waterfalls such as the confluence of three major waterfalls in Åmotan - Reppdalsfossen, Svøufossen, and Linndalsfossen. Further north in the remote Trollheimen Mountains, you'll find the unusual Nauståfossen.
