Waterfall Safety and Common Sense

The Waterfalls along the Otta River was really my attempt at trying to devote a page to the many waterfalls we saw as we drove the Rv15 along the Otta River towards the town of Otta in Oppland County (after leaving the Geiranger area).

We originally intended to look for the waterfalls Pollfoss and Dønnfossen, but we ended up seeing a bunch of rapids along the Otta River itself.

In fact, I don’t even think we managed to see the waterfalls we had originally targeted.

Instead, the greater surprise were the numerous waterfalls we saw coming down the mountains in the valleys carved out by the Otta River.

Since we couldn’t really find official names of the waterfalls we did find (let alone pinpoint their correct watercourse names), all we could really do was to show the photos and hope something in the literature comes up that might help shed light to our understanding of what we saw.

The result was this page.

So until we can say anymore more precise about what we captured on this page, we’ll have to be fairly cryptic about the locations of the photos shown.
