This Gaularfjellet National Tourist Route Map belongs to a series of 18 map and postcards sets describing popular tourist routes all over Norway.

The protected Gaular Watercourse, with its many lively rapids, waterfalls and shining lakes, is like a row of pearls along Gaularfjellet National Tourist Route. The drive is exciting and varied, along narrow fjords, on twisting roads up steep mountainsides, over high mountains and back down sheltered valleys. The route offers a peaceful alternative to the main roads between Sogn and Sunnfjord. Here children and adults can experience trout fishing at its best and wander on good paths beside waterfalls and rapids. It is also possible to rent a boat or take a walk in the mountains. In Balestrand there are museums and galleries and a wide selection of services.There is one panoramic view and rest area: Likholefossen features a parking lot, small rest area and a footbridge across one of the many rapids in the Gaula River.
