Tafjord Power Station Museum

TIME : 2016/2/18 23:02:40

Within this historic, now-defunct, power station, exhibitions details the advent of hydroelectric power in the valley, rock slides and avalanches. A long tube slide and indoor climbing wall make it extra fun for kids.

It's also worth taking the road that climbs from the village up to the Zakarias reservoir; after it passes through a bizarre corkscrew tunnel, a couple of kilometres higher up there is a short walking route that drops to the crumbling bridge at the dam's narrow base, where you feel at close range the stresses this 96m-high structure has to tolerate.
