Skrautvål sameige (Nord-Aurdal)

Skrautvål sameige lies in Nord-Aurdal and borders Øystre Slidre to the north-west, Etnedal to the south and south-east, and Gausdal and Nordre Land to the north-east. The licence covers lakes in the main watercourse, with good facilities for recreational fishing and good stocks of brown trout and perch.
