Round Barrow(s) in Telemark

Next to and on the south side of the road Breskelivegen is a very pretty iron age round barrow and one large long barrow. The barrows are located inside a fir forest but the barrows themselves are covered mostly with short moss and easy to see from the road.

The round barrow is 15 metres in diameter and 1,5 metres in height. It has a very clear ditch around the edges. It has a very pretty rounded shape and doesnt seem to have any damage. 20 metres to the south west is a long barrow with a length of 20 metres and with around 8 metres. It is 1-1,5 metres in height. This barrow is a little more overgrown with trees and less easy to see than the round barrow.
