In our nearby surroundings, there are a few special places with what seems like just ordinary piles of rocks… These piles of rock actually do have a history and an explanation behind them. They are not just piles of rocks.
The first pile of rocks worth mentioning, is located close to the top of Stonghaugen, the highest hill, next to the farm buildings. The view is spectacular from this point, and one might think these rocks might show a property marking of some sort. This is not the case. These rocks were placed at its current location a few decades ago by some young boys waiting for their father and older brother upon their return from the fisheries in Lofoten. The shape of the tallest rock, being flat on top, is perfect for sitting looking for action down on the fjord.
From this point, you see Vågsvågen and Arnøyfjorden quite well, and with a different direction, you see the great Folla.
Not far from Stonghaugen, there are some other piles of rock that are quite a bit larger of size, and quite older than the first, little pile of rocks.
In the area we call Klungvika, there are no less than two hills serving as someones resting place. This is marked by two, quite large rock-piles.
The view towards Folla from the largest of the graves is quite nice. And, the dark clouds are the bad weather coming in from the ocean in the west. Fascinating to observe the weather changes. Dramatic, spectacular and sometimes beautiful.
These graves are substantial monuments of old time history.
