Torvdalshalsen Bird Watching Tower

Published by misha in Adventure, Camping, Europe, Norway, Photos, Relaxing, Sightseeings

This wonderful bird-watching tower is situated in old leftover road bend in Norway with a spectacular view from the wild ocean and mountains of Eggum in the west.

 

After taking off from the main road, you pass through the site to reach the parking space. From east to west the 60m long-wall is cut into the ground and separates the parking area from the rest area, the sun and the view.

 

The rest area is constructed to give space for several buss loads of people. At the same time comfort and quiet is given to other travelers resting and eating. The sheltering wall is made of a steel construction covered with wooden laths and boards.

 

The horizontal direction of the wooden laths continues, and with cuts and folds, they are turned into tables and benches.
