Skuleberget
10 500 years ago, the mighty icesheet melted and the landscape of the High Coast appeared. Back then, the peak of Skuleberget was only a small island in a big ocean. Today, the mountain has risen 286 meters above the sea level. The view from the top reaches far over the sea and the World Heritage.
