Molen in Brunlanes is a national treasure and one of Larvik’s most popular attractions. Molen is Norway's largest beach of rolling stones, and it is a part of Vestfoldraet: the terrain left behind after the end of the most recent Ice Age 10.000 years ago. The cultural landscape of Molen, with its total of 230 cairns from the Iron Age, is one of the most majestic in Norway. The area has 16 large cairns, many up to 35 meters in diameter, with almost 200 small cairns in rows parallel to the shoreline. The cairns probably served as sea markers along the shipping lanes between different trading centres. This, combined with its striking natural beauty and position on the edge of the sea, makes it a must-see when visiting the area. You can enjoy a lovely view out to sea here and also study the beautiful species of stone called larvikite, a speciality for the Larvik area. Actually there are more than 100 different species of rock at Molen, and a total of 316 different bird species has also been found. The arrival and departure of the migratory birds is a real spectacle. Twice a year the migrants visit wonderful Molen, heading north in spring and eventually heading back south in autumn. In the summer of 2008 Molen was officially made into an UNESCO Geopark Area. If you want to get to Molen by manual means, the coastal path is easily accessible from either Helgeroa or Nevlunghavn.

This geo park has all the explanations one can need about the formation of rocks. There is an exhibition of rocks as old as 1500 million years!!! The park is huge and if the weather is nice and you feel adventurous, you can hike down to the beach through millions of years worth of perfectly rounded stones, and dip your feet in the cold water.

We came to SHB by walking around and it was an excellent place to taste beer. The selection is varied and the personnel is friendly. The great add-on is that you can order pizzas from Perfect Pizza and eat them in SHB, smart cooperatiom! We sat outside enjoying a beautiful evening with some great beers plus a Marco Polo Pizza. It could not be better. If you love beer, you must visit SHB whenever in Sandefjord.

Tønsberg tønne is Tønsberg barrel in english. It is located jn Sandefjord, Norway and can be reached by following the Kyststien path marked along the way. Kyststien in english simply means the coastal path or you can also say, the coastal trail. It is one of the most beautiful and easiest hiking trail you will ever find in this part of Norway. The hiking begins at the parking area - Tallakshavn. You will pass interesting sites such as the beautiful Nordre Trubervika beach, Strandvika beach, Strandvika Naturreservat, and finally the Tønsberg tønne. I believe that should mark the end of the hike. If you have enough time and would like to make a detour before reaching Tønsberg tønne, there is Engebukta and Ertsvika for you to explore as well. The elevation of Tønsberg tønne is higher than the rest of the hiking trail. It requires a bit of leg strength which makes it impossible for those using wheelchairs to reach this destination. Here, you will find amazing panoramic views from all angles. I have a video of this place on youtube, if you are interested to see it. You can find it on my channel THE KRUNS with title «The Coastal Path Norway - Day Hiking....» I have a lot of videos of Sandefjord’s beautiful attractions on my channel, if you are interested to explore more.

This is an excellent place to visit to stroll, look at the boats, see people and of course have a drink or a meal. It is highly reccomended in summer, in spring or fall when the sun is out, or even in winter to experience the cozy ambience. In summer the sun will set over the low hills to the northwest, quite late in the eveneing. So come and experience the long summer evenings like a Scandinavian. It is also buzzing for lunch. Scandinavians will jump at any excuse to sit outside in the sun! A lot of them bring friends for a "halvliter", a pint, but my husband and I usually settle for sparkling water and coca-cola, and a light meal. If you are quite young, and perhaps single, the action starts late.. after 10PM, but people of all ages go there for a drink and a meal in the early evening any day of the week. As we are an older couple, we prefer to head for home before 11, especially on Fridays and Saturdays. That is when the young crowd turn out in droves. If you are boating there are many berths, both along the quay and a little furter up where there is a little marina with many berths and shower and WC facilities. I have no idea what it costs these days.. There should be a sign or two. Someone will show up to take your money. :-) If you moor along the quay on the weekend, don't expect to have a good nights sleep. In summer that is party-time! The busiest season in Norway is medio June until medio August. In August it CAN start to be a little chilly at night .. or you can experience a Norwegian heatwave .. you never know!
