Kylling Bridge & Vermafossen
Kylling bru og Vermafossen
A stone arch bridge carrying the Rauma Railway across the gorge, with the cascading Vermafossen waterfall beside it, which you can stop to see from the E136 road.
Kylling Bridge was built between 1913 and 1921. It is a curved stone arch railway bridge about 59 meters (194 feet) high, spanning the Rauma River gorge, and it is the emblem of the Rauma Railway. There is a car park and viewpoint beside the road near the bridge, where you can photograph trains crossing. About 1 kilometer (0.6 miles) away, the Vermafossen waterfall drops about 380 meters (1,250 feet) in several tiers down the mountainside. It has the greatest drop of any waterfall along Norwegian railway lines, and summer sightseeing trains slow down here. Entry is free. It lies about 35 kilometers (22 miles) southeast of Åndalsnes, about 35 minutes along the E136 road, and can be visited on the same route as the Troll Wall.
