Round Barrow(s) in Telemark
Close to the lake Vinjevatn in a flat moor with leaf trees and forest vegetation is a large round barrow locally called Dronninghaugen. It is around 30 metres in diameter and around 6 metres in height. It has a very nice round shape and the profile seems to be undisturbed. The barrow is overgrown with trees and forest vegetation but is still easy to see and photograph. The barrow is said to be surrounded by smaller barrows but these were impossible to locate in the vegetation.
