Grytten statsallmenning (Romsdal)

Three areas in the Grytten state commons on either side of Romsdalen. The largest lies south and west of the valley, most easily reached from Trollstigen and Verma, with the regulated Vermevatnet at 1186 m above sea level. Alnesvatne is a 5-10 minute walk from the road up on Trollstigen. The mountain board has five cabins, and the fish run to a good size in Vermevatnet and Slettflybotn.
