About Sandsfossen
Sandsfossen was kind of a throw-in waterfall near the Sandsfjord-fringing town of Sand.
We only became aware of this waterfall when we saw a sign indicating its presence while we were trying to figure out how to reach the Ryfylke Fjordhotel where we were staying.

Although this wide river-type waterfall on the river Suldalslågen (I think is pronounced “SOOL-dolls-loh-gun”) was said to be a modest 4.4m tall and it appeared more like rapids than a waterfall, its claim to fame was really a salmon studio (Laksestudio).
That was where it was possible for visitors to peer through a window for an underwater perspective to see the fish make their way past the falls on a salmon ladder.
At the time, we weren’t aware of the studio so we only experienced the falls from the view you see at the top of this page.
Speaking of salmon, the Fosshølen pool at the base of the falls was said to provide good angling in September.
Perhaps on a return trip here, we might give this place another visit, and finally experience that salmon studio to see the fish doing their thing up close.
In any case, the view of the falls that you see on this page was from a grassy area behind a fence only a few paces from a small car park.
