July 28, 2021 Fernanda Pittenger

Called Sørlandet, Norway's South Coast is known for its rocky coastline, its whitewashed houses and its idyllic archipelago. This warmest area in the country draws many resdents for a summer holiday. Kristiansand, the biggest city here and fifth-largest in all of Norway, has many lovely beaches, a very good zoo (Norway's most visited attraction) and a number of historic buildings. These date from the period of the city's 17th-century founding and are located in Posebyen, the old town area.

Brufjell Hulene

Reviewed By Audimovesme - Ebeltoft, Denmark

I the southend part of Norway you may find a great sight; the “Caves of Brufjell”. But in order to get there you have to climb down a wall using only a few scattered steel handles fastened into the rock. This achiement however will get you to a magnificient place where the sea through thousands of years has eroded the rocks leaving a very speciel sight. Very much worth the effort.

Reviewed By pholdahl - Tonsberg, Norway

A very professional staff took us in, explained the rules, and answered any questions! A very dark escape room, but not too dark! With a haunted theme, scary music and noises. It had both complex, surprising, and interesting puzzles, that sometimes required real teamwork! It was an exciting and thrilling experience, that in my taste could have been just a little bit more scary! But I will not subtract a star for that, as I myself is quite hardened when it comes to scary stuff! Great work Escape Room Kristiansand, I will definitely come back, and recommend you to anyone visiting Kristiansand! :D

Brufjell

Brufjell mountain's highest point is 184 meters above sea level and offers a fantastic view over the Lista landscape. On a clear day you will see the lighthouse at Lista, an area know for its abundance of rare birds. From the top of Brufjell, there is a marked trail that leads to the potholes that lies horizontally at 20 m above sea level. The horizontal potholes were created during the Ice Age some 20.000 years ago. The sea level was higher back then. Did you know that millions of years ago the mountains here in the Southwest were taller than the Mt. Everest is today? Brufjell is part of Magma Geopark and UNESCO. The trip to the potholes takes about 20 min from Mt. Brufjell. There is some climbing involved in the descend, but handles have been put up to facilitate the climbing. However, dogs will not be able to accompany the owner. Keep in mind that the mountain may be slippery when wet. The round trip, that may be combined with the stony beach at Sandviga, takes 2-3 hours. Description: Drive road 44 (the North Sea road) to ana- Sira. Driving down the mountain from Flekkefjord, notice the sign Roligheten on the left side. Drive down this small road towards the small community. On the left hand side you will notice a sign with Brufjell on the stone wall of a torn-down barn. This is where the trail starts. Please park the car by the school you passed driving in some hundred meters back (a new parking lot is under planning). There is a relatively steep ascend in the beginning. Follow the marked trail. At the top of Brufjell you will see a mail box. Please write your name and nationality for statistical purposes. From here you walk in the direction of the sea, following the read markings down the mountain. It gets quite steep and people who are afraid of hights might find it a bit scary. Some safe handles have been put up to facilitate the short climbing. Return from top of Brufjell: It is possible to make this hike a round trip by walking west from the mailbox at Brufjell. Follow the trail through the gras over to the next mountain. Descend to Sandviga which is a stony beach. From here continue on the trail back to the houses at Roligheten Follow the road to the car. For a more detailed description, and a map, please see the tourist information in Flekkefjord.
