Excellent divesite. The lake was created after a landslide blocked off the river Lygna in may 1908. In the lake you'll find farm houses, stone fences, a road, bridge and two gates. Also, there is a wierd and wonderful old forest - the troll forest.

Underwater forest in lake Lygnstøylsvatnet, Norway.

Lake Lygnstøylsvatnet, Norway. I 1908, a rockslide closed off the valley and it was flooded by the river. Some of the rocks are huge! This one must be older than the landslide though; it has trees growing on it ;-)
