Tyssestrengene, Waterfall in Odda Municipality, Norway
Tyssestrengene features a total drop of 646 meters with the tallest single cascade measuring 312 meters, forming multiple tiers along its descent.
The Norwegian Hydroelectric Power Authority incorporated the waterfall into its system, which resulted in reduced water flow except during heavy snow melts.
The waterfall remains an integral part of Norway's natural heritage, recognized by Statistics Norway as containing the highest single waterfall drop in the country.
Visitors can reach Tyssestrengene by driving 6 kilometers north from Odda on Road 13 until Tyssedal, then following a marked trail to Ringedalsdammen.
The waterfall displays its full magnitude only during specific conditions, such as the November 2022 flooding, when western Norway experienced substantial rainfall.
