Gullbotnen
A barren belt where almost nothing grows, runs through the forest on the east slope of Gullbotnen. But, along the west side of the main road there is a fertile zone that flourishes with several finicky plant types. The contrasts arise from the extreme variations in the nutrient content of the bedrock.
Turøyvegen
The earthquake was caused by movements along fault zones in the bedrock where the blocks of rock chafed against each other. In Devonian time, there were many big earthquakes that caused Hordaland to be broken up along fault zones. Some of these faults are visible along road cuts between Tofteøyna and Turøyna islands. Along the Hordaland coast, earthquakes still occur sometimes, though the quakes tend to be weaker.
Ulven
In the region of Ulven phyllite occurs with Hordaland's youngest fossils, and a beautiful quartz conglomerate. The phyllite and conglomerate got squeezed into the bottom of an ancient oceanic crust, made of gabbro and greenstone, in the heart of the Caledonide mountain chain.
Lysøen
Lysøen, this fairytale castle with its Russian-inspired onion dome on the corner turret, stands as a reminder of the diversity of the period called Historicism and a monument to a versatile artist; a key figure in the Norwegian National Romanticism.
