Tänn Falls, waterfall in the län (county) of Jämtland, northwestern Sweden, on upper Indals River, between Tänn and Östra Norn lakes and near Mount Åreskutan (4,659 feet [1,420 m]). One of Sweden’s most impressive falls, it is split into two parallel cataracts, each about 81 feet (25 m) high. A total drop of 121 feet (37 m) carries its waters downward into Östra Norn Lake.
