Standing Stone (Menhir) in Hordaland

Bårstesteinen is a very pretty standing stone located in a private garden with a beautiful view over the lake Granvin. The stone is at the edge of the garden surrounded by garden grass and just next to a hedgerow.

The stone is 2,5 metres in height, around 50cm wide and 30cm thick. It has a square shaped cross section and the top ends in a small point. The stone is made of a light coloured type of rock and some moss is growing on the stone.
