Standing Stone (Menhir) in Rogaland
High up in a hillside overlooking the Ã…rdal village, just 2 metres away from the road is this weather-beaten and rugged standing stone. The site has a beautiful view over the valley below!
The stone has a rugged surface, it is around 1.70 metres high, around 50cm wide and it is slightly slimmer at the base. Around the stone is smaller brush and some larger leaf trees.
