- The station's catchment covers 311 km² and reaches 1,465 metres above sea level at its highest point.
- The catchment is 62% forest, which dampens runoff and gives a steadier discharge than in open mountain rivers.
- The mean discharge here is 84.66 m³/s, based on 51 years of measurements.
- Brown trout, grayling, Arctic char, whitefish and others have been recorded in this inland river system within about 5 km of the gauging station, based on Artskart data from Artsdatabanken.

What does Vannkart.no show?
Vannkart.no displays measurements from NVE’s national gauging network. Data comes from NVE HydAPI with historical percentiles (p25/p50/p75), showing how levels compare with the seasonal norm.
How to use the measurements
These data can help plan fishing, paddling and outdoor activities. When flooding is possible, always follow official warnings from varsom.no. Measurements may be delayed and should never be the sole basis for critical decisions.
