Molja Lighthouse

The view from Molja Lighthouse is beautiful both on a summer evening when people gather to enjoy the sunset, and in beautiful winter light. In addition to being a lighthouse, Molja Fyr is also a hotel room belonging to Hotel Brosundet. Imagine waking up here!

Byrampen viewpoint and Aksla town mountain

Enjoy the view from the Byrampen viewpoint halfway up to Aksla. Or from the top after you've climbed the 418 steps. Here you can see all the way to Runde in the south, the archipelago in the north and the fjords and mountains in the east. You won't find a more beautiful view, at least not if you ask the locals!
