Nordheim
"And here these endless kingdoms and these toils for a rich working life far and wide have lain and slept for a hundred thousand years! Right up until the Voss Railway came in 1883 and woke them, like the prince in the fairytale who awakened the Sleeping Beauty."
Sagvåg

Sandviksfjellet
On Sandviksfjellet there are old boulders that have been made into mountains.
