Round Barrows in Oppland
Just next to the main road trough Valdres valley are two round barrows. One of them is tuching the road and the road construction have taken a small piece of one of the barrows. Both the barrows are easy to see from the road.
The barrow to the south is around 25 metres in diameter and around 2,5 metres in height. It is overgrown with small grass and some larger birch trees. The barrow has a very pretty shape even the small damage to the edge from the road.
The other barrow is inside a local yard and surrounded by a wooden fence. It only has short grass covering it and the shape is very easy to see. The barrow is 12 metres in diameter and around 1,5 metres in height.
