Gamle Jaerbanen

Cycling along the Nordsjøveien from Egersund to Hellvik is a wonderful trip, which spans 12 kilometers on a well-prepared hiking/gravel road. There are many great checkpoints and picnic areas along the way. If it's too long to ride back and forth, a great alternative is to turn around by Maurholen (an old train station with waffle sales in the summer and a beautiful outdoor area) or take the train

Trollpikken

Trollpikken is a phenomenon created by the ice during the last ice age that ended about 10,000 years ago. This destination is today in a beautiful cultural landscape and the rock in the area is called anorthosite. The hike up to Trollpikken is about 2 km long on a varied terrain, suitable for whole family. Parking fee.

Reviewed By palrake - Oslo, Norway

The scenery is very beautiful, and the walk is not that long, I guess 40 minutes one way? Parking is easy. The story of the formation being cut off is funny. I wish I had such big formation as a part of my own body, but since Trollpikken is made out of solid rock, no blue pill known to man will ever provide the proper elevation to such a heavy object.

6. Auglend & Vandringshavn

Auglendsveien, Egersund 4370 Norway [email protected] https://www.visitnorway.com/listings/auglend-vandringshavn/12121/
Auglend & Vandringshavn

Recreational area located on Eigerøy and a fantastic area for coastal walks. Traces of fishing activities stretching back several hundred years. Possibilities for fishing, grilling and swimming. Car parking with WC facilities. Follow the road to Eigerøya on Fv 42, then follow the sign to the right and to the very end of the road. Buss nr.3.

7. Migaren Via Ferrata

Magma Geopark, Egersund 4370 Norway
