Ryvarden Lighthouse or Ryvarden Fyr ( In Norwegian) is an lighthouse in Mølstrevåg in Sveio Commune. There is an 2 km long road that you must walk to come to the lighthouse from carpark at the seaside. Normaly you can't drive the whole way to the lighthouse, only by permission.

The Road to Ryvarden is accessable whole year. The Lighthouse was build in 1860-61 and there was made upgrade to the lighthouse a few times. Now the Lighthouse is an Art-Gallery, and a Flokemuseum

ramsfjellet

This is a Mountain 150 meters above the sea level. The mountain lays between many different areas in Sveio. You can climb the Mountain from many areas in Sveio, the Mountains is not so easy known by tourist, because it's not so know than other mountains in Sveio.

You can take the nature trail from Fjellstad and go trail awhile, the trail is not far way from the mountain.But you must take go off the trail to be able to get to mountain and there is no signs that say where the mountain is and there is no sign that points out where the trail is.

That's why a map is useful or even nessary for somebody who has not locally knowledge about this area. You can buy maps over Sveio in Books stors in Haugesund or in Sveio Tourist burau (I think). Or you can find a map on the internet:

eks: http://ngis2.statkart.no/norgesglasset/default.You have option to use english on this page as well as Norwegian.

This Mountain is 271 Meters above the sea, easier to walk to \ climb the mountain from Auklandshavn. From Sætre there is also a way to the Mountain top but the rout is more difficult to climb than the Auklandshavn rout.
