This may very well be the tallest waterfall in Norway, however, we don't know if it has been measured, and we don't know if it has a name. The height listed above is an estimate based on 1:50,000 topographic maps, so it may be inaccurate to some degree, but we're 90% certain that this one drops over 2500 feet. The linked photo below shows the lower half of the formation.
