Kjelfossen, Waterfall in Gudvangen, Norway
Kjelfossen waterfall consists of three major streams falling from a height of 755 meters, with its largest single drop measuring 149 meters point.
The waterfall system has maintained its position among the top 20 highest waterfalls worldwide, marking its presence on Norway's natural landmarks list.
Norwegian naming traditions reflect in the waterfall's nomenclature, where 'fossen' represents the definite form of 'foss,' meaning waterfall in Norwegian.
Visitors can view the waterfall from multiple locations including the E16 highway, Gudvangen camping site, and the Shell station near the tunnel entrance.
During June and July, snowmelt from mountain peaks substantially increases the water volume, creating three distinct cascading streams visible from various angles.
