Water paths

Taken close to the Nature centre at Fetsund Lenser - a national heritage monument and timberfloating museum. The "paths" (flåteganger) are made of wood and chained together and floats on the water. One can walk on the water using these. When timber was transported along the rivers, Fetsund Lenser was in charge of sorting the timber and make sure it got to the right owners and the mills. The workers used these water paths to get out to the timber on the river.
