Heart of Jettegryten on Eigerøy

Hjerte Jettegryten is located on Eigerøy and is an impressive natural phenomenon. It is a large, round depression in the bedrock, formed over thousands of years by swirling rocks and the erosion of the sea.

Its distinctive heart shape makes it particularly photogenic, and it's easy to see why locals and visitors alike flock here to experience nature up close.

NRK has created a guide to the best places in Norway to take Instagram-friendly photos, and Hjerte Jettegryten on Eigerøy is on the list. This makes it a perfect destination for those who want to combine a nature experience with spectacular photos.
Visit Hjerte Jettegryten to experience a unique natural formation, hear the constant beat of the sea against the rocks and get a memory for life - both in your head and on your camera.

A great discovery trip for young and old alike, but the little ones must be well looked after at the water's edge.
