Gudbrandsdalslågen is a river linking the high mountains to the north in Oppland County with Norway's largest lake, Mjøsa. The river carries a lot of water both during the summer and the winter and is an enormous ecosystem in itself. The many different birds, and all the other animals that consider Lågen home, are fantastic and change throughout the year, which means that those who enjoy it tend to come back over and over again.
