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

Dyreparken

Kristiansand Dyrepark is the number one tourist attraction in Norway, attracting close to 1 million visitors each year. It consists of more than 150 different animal species, entertainment, shows, amusement park as well as a seperate water park called Badelandet.

Reviewed By phillipka - Kristiansand, Norway

Kristiansand Zoo is more than a regular zoo: There's an amusement park and a water fun park, as well. Great care is taken to make sure that the animals have plenty of space, and that's good for the animals. Sometimes it´s not so good for the visitors, as the animals tend to find shelter away from sight of the visitors. My son found the tigers and the cheetahs to be the most exciting, but the rain forest is also always interesting. I would recommend spending two days here, if you have the time.

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.

Dresinsykling pa Flekkefjordsbanen Day Tours

The trip starts off from Flekkefjord station, and the first experience you get, is a tunnel leading you out of Flekkefjord city. You will throughout the entire trip, witness several stops, that are well preserved by the volunteer organisation “Flekkefjordbanens Venner”. The stone work and the tunnels along the railway are particularly impressive. You have a beautiful view the entire trip. At Flikkeid you can see a beautiful well preserved water tower. Here is a good place for a break and a little snack. When you continue from Flikkeid you will see the most beautiful view at Flekkefjordbanen. You are cycling alongside Lundevatnet, and you see the beautiful fjord. At this stage, you will also pass through the longest tunnel who is 1.2 km. At the end of the fjord, you must pass a track exchanger. Take it slow and everything will be fine. You are now at Sirnes and almost at the last stop, Bakkekleivi. The last part is two km and you can choose to turn around here, instead of going the last part.
