Hällingsåfallet nature reserve
After a hike along the Hällingså river through the magic primal forest you reach the canyon. Here we wander along the 50 meter high cliffs until we catch a glimpse of the mighty waterfall. It's possible to park your car up near the waterfall but for those who have time and are able we recommend the walk upstream for a better experience of the unique reserve.
