The farm area of Dalbo features several smaller rock art sites. They are all located along a footpath with several information signs. Some of the sites were overgrown (2019) with grass and very difficult to find.
The site should have been maintained better since it is parts of a history path.
The first panel shows a collection of carvings of ships with crew lines and some human figures. The next panels shows cup marks, sun circles, horses and some more ship carvings, one with actual oars. The carvings seems to have been made with numerous small "dots" or holes.
Because the rock art has been damaged by erosion, several panels of this rock art site have been covered to protect them against the elements.
