Norway: The Telemark Canal

In 2014, we traveled into the very center of southern Norway via the stunningly beautiful Telemark canal.

The canal was built 1861-1892 for the purpose of transporting timber, stone and iron products. Eighteen manually-operated locks 98’ long x 21’ wide. All with lift/drop of less than 15 feet. Navigable depth is 5-6’. Overhead clearance is an amazing 42’ or more.

You can read more about the Telemark canal here:
