Turkart Gullingen

Hiking

The Gullingen area lies approximately 5-7oo meters above sea level and is a center for good nature experiences in the Suldal Treasury.

The area has been used for a long time, and one has, among other things, found traces of Stone Age people who hunted and Vikings who collected iron ore. In the 1980s, the area became home to Northern Europe's largest hydropower development. Ulla-Førre, who has seen Suldal on the map as a power giant, accounts for 8% of annual power production in Norway. Today, the area is used as open pasture for sheep and is a hub for good experiences in the Ryfylke hills.

You can download a hiking map for the Gullingen area by clicking  here (map) and here (information). You can also get the map at Suldal tourist information and selected shops.
