The Dam Juvass

The Dam Juvass was completed in 1958 and is 46 metres high. At that time, it was considered the highest dam of its kind (combination bow and plate) in Northern Europe. The reservoir has a capacity of 142 million cubic metres of water. If you cross the dam on foot, taking in the magnificent views, it is a nice walk to the mountain farm Juvasstøl on the eastern side of the lake Juvatn. The path, which follows the shoreline, is not marked, but is easy to find.
