Said about the Aqueduct: “Between two vast, forest-covered rocks, where the light hues of the deciduous trees merge with the veiled lushness of the conifers, a foaming river spews from great height above Lake Åklången, through a narrow passage down to the covering in Upperud. The clear morning sun spreads its golden glow across the frothy matt silver of the waters, while the din of the wrought ironsmiths breaks through the roar of the waves. To the left of the fall, high above the lock gates at Håfverud, a gigantic reddish brown creation appears, which crosses from one side of the roaring waters from one bank to the other in all its splendour. This immense, water-filled iron box is the famous aqueduct, the only one in Scandinavia, one of the many monuments to Nils Ericson’s incredible genius.” From: Svea Folk Calendar, 1870, page 103–10

Otroligt fint område vid Dalslands Kanal som erbjuder både café, restaurang, ett par olika museum och själva akvedukten där både land-, järnväg- och vattenbro korsar varandra. Kanalmuseet beskriver livet längs kanalen förr i tiden och på restaurangen erbjuds bl a deras egenrökta fisk.
