Northern Europe's largest moving stone block of 74 tonnes
Next to the Blåfjellbanen, an old railway line, you will find a large moving stone called "Ruggesteinen". This is Northern Europe's largest moving stone block of 74 tonnes. See if you can move it by hand alone.

Park at the bathing area in Linepollen and walk along the gravel road to Ruggesteinen.
