Hiking

Old watchtower built for the first time in 1801 (the replica of which stands next to the new tower). From the top (freely accessible) one has a 360 ° -view, which shows Kristiansund, the sea and the surrounding fells. Especially nice is the painting inside, which represents the environment (earlier) and the name of the summit, including altitude.

Hiking

Former watchtower on the Varden at 78 meters above sea level. Great view of Kristiansund, the fairway and the beautiful surroundings.
