The Telemark Canal is a tourist attraction that stretches from the coast to the mountains of Telemark, and offers a variety of landscapes. The canal was opened in 1892 and is 105 kilometers long, with 18 locks that create a total height difference of 72 meters. This gives visitors the opportunity to experience a unique combination of nature and engineering.
The attraction offers scheduled passenger boat services, which give guests the opportunity to enjoy the canal from the water. It is also possible to combine boat trips with accommodation in various package deals. For those who want to explore the area on their own, there are opportunities to experience the canal with their own boat. In addition, gift certificates are available for experiences on the canal, as well as recommended activities in the surrounding area.
