This is Voringossen (Voring Waterfall), the best-known waterfall in Norway, though only 83rd in height among Norway's many waterfalls. We stayed in a guest house that was just above the falls and walked to the falls that morning, though it was rainy and wet, spending most of the morning visiting the various viewpoints. Voringfossen drops 182 meters from the Hardangervidda Plateau into the Mabodalen Valley, a valley into which we would hike later in the day to see the falls from a different perspective. There is a hotel above the falls and a bridge from which the falls can be viewed, visible in the upiper left of the photo.

Our impressions of Norway were that it was (1) very beautiful especially the fjords and mountains, (2) very expensive, (3) full of waterfalls, and (4) full of tourists. We were at Voringossen early but by the time we left the parking lot on the other side of the falls was filled with vehicles and we found on our hikes that the best-known trails were also jammed with tourists. The weather was generally decent, though we had a lot of cloudy weather and little sunshine, but the day we visited Voringfossen was the only day we had a lot of rain and came back to our guest house wet.
