Spansteigen Standing Stone
Spansteigen Standing Stone submitted by kenntha88 : Site in Hordaland Norway (Vote or comment on this photo)
At Spansteigen, Hordaland, Norway is a very beautiful and slender standing stone. It is located at the edge of a private garden and surrounded by garden bushes. The area is a hill sloping down to the sea to the North. It has a beautiful view over the ocean. The stone is tall, around 4 metres in height. It is 70cm wide at the bast and around 30cm thick. It narrows toward the top that ends in a point. As you can see the stone is tilting to one side.
