Description

Fulufjällets nationalpark är ett nästintill orört naturområde i södra delen av fjällkedjan. Fjället reser sig som en platå i landskapet, med branta sidor och platt upptill. Här uppe betar inga renar. Därför täcks fjällheden av tjocka lavmattor.

Många besöker Njupeskärs vattenfall, som är 93 meter högt varav 70 meter fritt fall. Ljudet av vattenmassor som krossas är nästan öronbedövande och skapar en tung dimma som många ovanliga mossor och lavar tycker om. Under årtusenden har vattnet mejslat ut en stor klyfta. Hit kommer de flesta besökare. På toppen av fallet har du en fantastisk utsikt över klyftan och landskapet.

Nationalparken invigdes 2002. Arealen är 38 500 hektar (385 kvadratkilometer) varav två tredjedelar är kalfjäll och fjällhed.

Directions

Fulufjället National Park is located in northwestern Dalarna, about 150 kilometers from Mora and about 60 kilometers from Idre.

Fulufjället is located in northwestern Dalarna next to the Norwegian border. The main entrance is about 25 km west of Särna. Follow highway 70 north from Särna. After 4 km, turn left towards Mörkret and Gördalen. From Mörkret, follow the signs to Fulufjället National Park.

If you want to travel by public transport to the main entrance, you can book your trip to Särna and from there book flextrafik.

Going hiking in the summer? Feel free to go to an entrance other than the main entrance as it quickly becomes full during the high season. In the summer, many people visit the national park's main entrance at the same time. The parking lot will then be full. During the high season (June 15 to September 15), visitors usually peak between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. The quietest times are before 10 a.m. and after 4 p.m. If possible, plan your visit for less crowded times. Or try taking the bus to the national park.

In winter, the roads to the Gördalen entrance, Brottbäcksstugan entrance and Morbäckssätern entrance are plowed.

Nej Njupeskär är inte högsta vattenfallet!

Tvillingfallen eller Greven och Grevinnan som dom också kallas, är två vattenfall vid Stora Sjöfallets nationalpark i Gällivare kommun. ca300m och ca 250m
Norra storfjället nordväst om Hemavan vid Måskoesvaajja finns ytterligare ett mindre vattendrag som har nästan 200m fallhöjd.
Det gör Njupeskär till fjärde högsta och inget annat.
Njupeskär här heller inte 70m fritt fall som uppges.
