Introducing Evje

The riverside town of Evje, surrounded by forests and rolling hills, serves as the southern gateway to Setesdalen. It’s famous among geologists for the variety of rocks found here – a mineral park, nickel mine and the chance to prospect for your own rocks are among Evje’s primary attractions. Quiet little Evje is also a first-class base for white-water rafting and other outdoor activities.
