Formofossen

After our hike and eating lunch we headed on. First stop was the Northern Norway boundary…no longer in Northern Norway :( The trip is ending too soon!! We are getting too far south!

Then it was on to spy on Formofossen which I thought would be a 5 min break, but ended up with another little hike to see all we could see! The water levels in the rivers aren’t as crazy as they were yesterday, but they are still high and so much water! And this waterfall was no exception! So much water! It might not look like much in the photos, but standing on the side of the river it was really amazing. So loud, so rough, so much spray! It was crazy! If you search on Google Maps for the waterfall you can see photos from other times when there is not nearly as much water. We’ve had so much rain it makes the waterfalls really fun!

We walked down the other side of the river as well to spy as there was a sign for the waterfall that way too, but it wasn’t as nice as the main waterfall. But some fun rocks we had to walk on to get out to the water! So much fun!

I had had another short hike to do this afternoon, but the waterfall took up all of our time (and I think it was the better choice as I loved it!). Tomorrow I have a ton of hikes in my want to do list so I need to go through and choose…I tried searching on Monday for things people recommended doing along this main road and pretty much everyone was like it is so boring! Spend way more time and drive out along the coast! Which sure, that was absolutely gorgeous last time, but this has been way nicer than I expected from what everyone was saying. We have been loving driving and seeing all the things!

Raymond did comment the other day how there are too many trees down here blocking my views which is true! So many more trees, and lots of evergreens! It is also much greener down here with more diverse plants (up north it was like all berries that had turned red, whereas here not so many berries, but lots of ferns and other things. And all still very green!). So we keep joking about how boring everything is, especially the gorgeous views while driving!Read more
