Elgåfossen (waterfall)
Situated along Borgleden
Elgåfoss is located on the border between Norway and Sweden and is a great starting point for those who want to follow the pilgrim path through the country.
Elgåfoss on the Norwegian side is the starting point for the 190 km long Borgleden, a trail with deep historical roots from both ancient and modern times.
Elgåfoss is Østfold's highest unregulated waterfall and has a drop height of 46 meters.
At the waterfall, you can see the remains of the buildings to a tenant farmer from 1859, with timber operations, sawmills and mills.
