Åmotan gorge
Dovrefjell, NorwayIf you are driving along Highway 70 from Oppdal or Sunndalsøra, take off at Gjøra and drive about 5 km to Svisdal.
Around you, the Sunndal mountains rise up towards Dovre, with three waterfalls tumbling down the mountainsides into the same ravine.
During the spring floods, this becomes an raging inferno that will take your breath away.
But even at other times, there is plenty of water in the falls to allow you admire one of Sunndal's greatest natural phenomena.
A path carries you down into the ravine, but you can enjoy a little of the same experience from the road leading up to Vangshaugen tourist lodge.
Marked trails in spectacular surroundings.
Maps available at Sunndalsøra tourist information, the National Park Center atGjøra and by parking place at Åmotan.
