Gulsvik

When the ferry over Lake Krøderen was established, Gulsvik became the natural port on the northern side, with accommodations for tourism.

[4][5] Hallingporten is a 65 m long tunnel on Norwegian National Road 7 (Riksvei 7) just north of Gulsvik.

The Gulsvik farm was known from the Middle Ages, when the owners were among the most prominent people in lower Hallingdal.

[6] In the late middle ages, the owners of Gulsvik farm were noblemen in allegiance to the king of Norway.

The old Gulsvik clan is said to be one of the most widespread families in lower Buskerud, descending from a Birkebeiner soldier in the service of King Sverre.
