Activity Level
moderate
Duration
3:30 Hours
Discover the delights of one of Norway’s best-preserved small towns.
Relax on the scenic ride out of Haugesund and pause in Ferkingstad to visit the Fishermen’s Memorial. The stone cross and bell tower here pay tribute to locals who’ve lost their lives in American waters.
On the southern tip of Karmøy island lies the capital Skudeneshavn – a postcard-perfect town dating back to the early 19th century. Picture the chaotic scenes during the booming days of herring fishing as your guide shows the way between the white-painted wooden buildings and enjoy a little free time to shop for souvenirs.
Keen to know more about the fascinating local heritage? Visit the Mælandsgården Museum, hosted in an authentic merchant house in the Old Town, to find out about life and industry in years gone by.
