Gålå
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Gålå is a Norwegian resort in the district of Gudbrandsdalen, catering for both winter and summer leisure activities. It is situated on the Peer Gynt trail, a ~100km cross-country tourist road.
The name
The resort is named after the old mountain farm Gålå. The mountain farm is named after the lake Gålå (Gålåvatnet 'Gålå lake') - and the lake is named after the river Golo. The Norse form of the river name was probably *Gola - and is then derived from the verb gola 'howl, yell, scream'. (The river has a steep fall, and makes a lot of noise.)
