Gravity guides them towards the deep-cut K\u00e5fjorddalen valley, where they flow into the fjord. The Magerjohka has dug the deepest canyon, called Sabetjohk, forming 153 metres high cliff sides. The Guol\u00e1\u0161johka, fed by Norwegian and Finnish water, then gushes 141 metres into the abyss in a graceful curve from the side. Downriver, an aluminium footbridge spans the river, providing fantastic views of the drama.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The bridge looks flimsy, but is rock solid<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Rintala-Eggertson Arkitektkontor (Architect Studio) did the first design sketches of this landmark bridge. Then the architect studio of<a href=\"https:\/\/ghilardihellsten.no\/\"> Ghilardi+Hellsten<\/a> in Oslo and the Austrian metal processing company <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bitschnau.com\/metallverarbeitung\/home\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Bitschnau GmbH <\/a>joined forces to make a unique lightweight construction. The hollow aluminum pipes were joined together at the parking, and then lifted by helicopter in the summer of 2011. The total weight of the bridge is a mere 4 tonnes, the bridge is 53 metres long and the walkway is 1,5 metres wide.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<div class=\"wp-block-vnn-gallery gallery-count-2\">\n\t\t<ul><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/013160_Petr-Pavl-ek_Visit-Lyngenfjord.jpg\" data-size=\"1621x1080\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">01<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/013160_Petr-Pavl-ek_Visit-Lyngenfjord.jpg\" alt=\"Where the rivers meet \u00a9 Petr Pavl\u00ed\u010dek\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/013160_Petr-Pavl-ek_Visit-Lyngenfjord.jpg\" data-caption=\"Where the rivers meet \u00a9 Petr Pavl\u00ed\u010dek\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/013152_Petr-Pavl-ek_Visit-Lyngenfjord.jpg\" data-size=\"1621x1080\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/013152_Petr-Pavl-ek_Visit-Lyngenfjord-768x512.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/013152_Petr-Pavl-ek_Visit-Lyngenfjord.jpg\" data-caption=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><\/ul><div class=\"vnn-gallery-figcaptions\"><figcaption>01: Where the rivers meet \u00a9 Petr Pavl\u00ed\u010dek<\/figcaption><\/div>\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Getting there is an easy walk<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re driving, exit the E6 at Birtavarre and venture into the K\u00e5fjorddalen valley. The valley floor is flat, with farms and houses, all built in the characteristic reconstruction style from the 1950\u2019es. After some 8 km, the paving ends, and you are driving on a potholed gravel road where slow speed is recommended. A further 3 km, you reach the parking, with toilets and signage to trails. You head towards \u201cGorsabrua\u201d for some 1,8 kilometres (a good mile), which should take you about 25 minutes. The path is even and easy to walk, and the ascent is gentle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Europe\u2019s tightest bungee jump is a moment to remember<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a way to make the Gorsabrua visit even more memorable; you can bungee jump. The jump is described as Europe\u2019s tightest, as you jump into the deep canyon. Feel free to let your heart&#8217;s cry echo in a primal scream as you fall, the roar of the waterfall overwhelms everything. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bungee.no\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">company organises jumps<\/a> most Saturdays through the summer and early autumn season. Even non-jumpers often time their visits to these Saturdays, hoping for that bungee snapshot. If you just want a quiet moment with the waterfall, make sure to come on a week-day with less people hiking.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<div class=\"wp-block-vnn-gallery gallery-count-2\">\n\t\t<ul><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/013154_Petr-Pavl-ek_Visit-Lyngenfjord.jpg\" data-size=\"1621x1080\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">01<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/013154_Petr-Pavl-ek_Visit-Lyngenfjord.jpg\" alt=\"Guolasjohka from the left, the Magerjohka from the right \u00a9 Petr Pavl\u00ed\u010dek\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/013154_Petr-Pavl-ek_Visit-Lyngenfjord.jpg\" data-caption=\"Guolasjohka from the left, the Magerjohka from the right \u00a9 Petr Pavl\u00ed\u010dek\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/013152_Petr-Pavl-ek_Visit-Lyngenfjord-1.jpg\" data-size=\"1621x1080\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">02<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/013152_Petr-Pavl-ek_Visit-Lyngenfjord-1-768x512.jpg\" alt=\"The Gorsabrua bridge is 53 metres long (174 feet) and was airlifted in one piece \u00a9 Petr Pavl\u00ed\u010dek\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/013152_Petr-Pavl-ek_Visit-Lyngenfjord-1.jpg\" data-caption=\"The Gorsabrua bridge is 53 metres long (174 feet) and was airlifted in one piece \u00a9 Petr Pavl\u00ed\u010dek\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><\/ul><div class=\"vnn-gallery-figcaptions\"><figcaption>01: Guolasjohka from the left, the Magerjohka from the right \u00a9 Petr Pavl\u00ed\u010dek<\/figcaption><figcaption>02: The Gorsabrua bridge is 53 metres long (174 feet) and was airlifted in one piece \u00a9 Petr Pavl\u00ed\u010dek<\/figcaption><\/div>\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When should you hike to Gorsabrua?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have an average mobility and limited experience with snow, you should come in the snow-free season from June to early October, possibly later if the autumn is mild.
