One of my favourite places in sweden is the ”big rapids”.
It is one of the biggest waterfalls in Europe with its 5km long stream of water and 82 meters in vertically fall lenght. In avarage there are 180 000 people that visits ”big rapids” every year.
There is a plateau near the stream where people can stand and watch and listen to the big noises that the stream makes.
The area around the big rapids are a nature reserve which means you’re not allowed to pick up flower etc.. to ruin the environments, but you can swim in the small lakes which i have done and it is pretty cold but fun.
Sometimes there is also an concert with music there, but i have never listened to it.
As you walk around you can find big holes straight down through the rocks, the holes were created long time ago when the rapids were wider and made the stones underneath the surface to spin in place and dig down in the rocks creating the holes.

Wow it looks wonderful ! I've never seen a waterfall :(
ReplyDeleteVery interesting presentation.
ReplyDeleteOne year ago I went to Plitvička Lakes Park in Croatia. There are a lot of karst lakes and waterfalls.
Do you think they are similar to the ones you are describing?
This is amazing and beautyful.
ReplyDeleteI would have seen it :)
