Fulufjället National Park
Sandstone plateau, lichen heath and Sweden's tallest waterfall in Dalarna
Fulufjället is a high sandstone plateau of lichen heath, cut by deep river valleys with old-growth forest. Reindeer no longer graze here, so the lichen carpets are unique in the Swedish mountains, and Njupeskär, Sweden's highest waterfall, drops 93 m.
