The Dam Juvass was completed in 1958 and is 46 metres high.

At that time, it was considered to be the highest dam of its kind (combination bow and plate) in Northern Europe.

The reservoir has a capacity of 142 million cubic metres of water. Magnificent views from the dam.

If you cross it by foot, it is a nice walk to Juvasstøl.

The path, which follows the shoreline, is not marked, but is easy to find.

The scenic road to the dam is accessible most of the year.

In the winter, however, it may be challenging due to snow and slippery roads.
