Use the wide-angle function on your phone, otherwise you won't get it in 😁. "Old Town Hall – unique wooden building from the Empire period and the tallest of its kind in Norway"

Worth seeing even in bad weather, perhaps even more so 😀

Sandvikheia offers a commanding perspective over the archipelago. The trail ascends through a classic coastal landscape where windswept pines and thickets of heather frame the path, leading to open plateaus of smooth, ice-scoured granite. It is a site defined by its clarity and light, offering a quintessential Norwegian coastal vista that feels significantly more expansive than its modest altitude suggests.

This steep wooden staircase serves as a vital vertical link, anchored directly into the rugged granite shoreline of the Aust-Agder coast. The structure offers an expansive view of the calm bay and the distant, lighthouse-dotted horizon of the Skagerrak sea.

Beautiful harbor promenade that invites you to linger. The typically white old town is above the promenade.
