Introducing Egersund

One of the prettiest towns along this stretch of coastline, Egersund is a serene place strewn with old timber houses that tell the story of its long history; intriguing rune stones found in nearby Møgedal are among the oldest written forms found in southern Norway. It’s a quiet place to wander and to soak up the small-town ambience of the southern Norwegian coast.

The tourist office (51 46 80 00; www.eigersund.kommune.no; Jernbaneveien 2; 10am-6pm Mon-Fri, 10am-4pm Sat & Sun Jun-Aug) is fine for local information, but it’s only open in summer.
