Cairn in Oppland
In the north hillside of the Vardal valley in sloping terrain to the south and with a very nice view over the valley is a burial cairn. It is visible as a "island" of trees with the hill around having grain fields. On the cairn is several birch trees and the cairn is overgrown and not easy to see. According to kulturminnesøk the cairn is 15 metres in diameter and 1,5 metres in height.
