Kjøsterud canyon

Kjøsterud canyon features high stone cliffs with varied rock formations formed through natural erosion processes spanning thousands of years.

The canyon has functioned as a central geographical marker for Drammen Municipality residents since the early settlement of the region.

Local residents gather at the canyon throughout the year for organized outdoor activities and nature appreciation events.

The hiking trail extends for 7 kilometers with a 370-meter elevation gain, requiring proper footwear and water supplies for the journey.

The canyon walls capture and retain solar heat, creating specific temperature conditions that influence the local microclimate.
