Trollforsen

The waters of Trollforsen cascade through multiple levels of rocky formations, creating a natural display of water force within the northern Swedish landscape.

Between 1878 and 1945, the rapids underwent modifications to facilitate timber transportation, reshaping the water flow patterns in this section of Pite River.

Local residents gather at Trollforsen throughout the year for outdoor activities, maintaining traditional connections with the river through fishing and nature observation.

Two suspension bridges span across the rapids, offering visitors different vantage points while following the 6.28-kilometer circular hiking trail through the area.

The redirection of water flow over time has resulted in the formation of geological structures known as giant's kettles along the riverbed.
