lindesnes fyr

t0rkilt

In Norway we are used not to pay for "nature attractions", so we were surprised its cost 120 NOK each to enter the area. Oh yes, we got one cup of coffee for that price... BUT the rest of the visit was perfect; wiev, ocean, exhibition "in the cave", nice people and service.

Well worth the trip if you have the time. It's an about 20 minutes scenic drive off the main highway.

When leaving the main road to go to Lindesnes fyr, I recommend you do that at Vigeland (the road to the light house is clearly marked with a light house in the roundabout). This route is vey scenic as you drive a long the water, while the other way that take you trough Lyngør was soo long and boring.The entrance fee is NOK 70 which includes a free coffee or tea in the coffee shop. There was plenty of free parking available, however we were there outside the main tourist season.The light house is very well kept, and you can climb to the top and enjoy a beautiful view over the ocean and archipelago. I can recommend a visit to this light house at the most southern point if Norway if you are in the area.

Beautiful place to visit. you have to pay some entrance fee for the lighthouse and the museum. Once entered you can access all places there. You will get a free coffee voucher and you have free WIFI access in the coffee house and in the lower yard.

You can visit a lot of lighthouses here in Norway but this one is located on the most southern part of the country is one of the best! With its 350 years of maritime history, Lindesnes Lighthouse is a well-preserved and interesting cultural attraction for both locals and tourists.The view is absolutely breath taking in nice weather! And if you go there in a stormy weather and you will experience something you will never forget!Remember to bring proper shoes if you want to walk outside the paths or try some of the walking tours in the beautiful nature starting from the lighthouse area (ask in the gift shop for a map).If you just visit the lighthouse for the day you pay an entrance fee of NOK 50,-. This gives you access to the top of the lighthouse tower (climbing 109 stairs), the exhibitions and the mountain hall where there are more exhibitions. Well worth the price!RegardsSvein-Magne Tunli from Bergen, Norway.

Beautiful place as far south as you can come in Norway. It's very windy, and the Summer it's beautiful. You can also see the birds while they are coming over from England and other countries. It has a beautiful view. You can go down to the rocks and the beach, but if it is windy, you have to be careful! It also has some tunnels from World War 2 who is very interesting to go though.

Thinking you are on the southern tip of Norway, would wouldn't think wind. But this lighthouse is up on a steep bluff overlooking the sea. The views are wonderful, but the wind was extremely strong! Climbing to the top of the lighthouse gave some wonderful views, both land and sea. And going down into the bunkers from World War II on the grounds was very interesting also. I would highly recommend it. The drive to the lighthouse on the narrow road was an experience on its own.

Norway belongs to the north of Europe and it may accordingly sound odd to seek the very south of the country (why not head for Tarifa in stead). This was part of our 25-year project, "know thy country". Interesting and rewarding.

Incredible winds, beautiful views. Great fun searching the tunnels. Several interesting exhibitions and films allow you to take a break from the wind.

This trip was definitely worth it. The Lindesnes lighthouse is situated up high on the rocks with spectacular views of the sea and the surroundings. When we visited it was very cloudy and windy but still worth it as the scenery was more dramatic and interesting. The walk up there is also interesting since there are museums around and a nice cafeteria at the bottom of the cliff with a cinema. Highly recommended!

We were made very welcome and an excellent video presentation followed in a first class cinema.Following a walk up to the lighthouse and guided tour we were well fed and watered in their nearby cafe/restaurant .

Had been to this location with my family.Traveled from Stavanger. This is a very nice and a amazing spot. All you need is a sunny and a calm day, else strong winds may spoil your efforts.Only thing is, if you are traveling from Stavanger, you take a right on Lyngdal route and follow the Spangereid direction. But nowhere in Lyngdal or till you take a right turn on Spangereidveien(Rv460), there is a sign board for Fyr being a tourist spot. We lost our track and had to ask local people until we got the proper guidance.But all our efforts paid off when we reached there, it was a bright sunny day and got a spectacular view of the North sea. A perfect satisfaction of reaching the southern most point of Norway. It is around 30 to 40 minutes from E39. We love it.It is with an entry fee of 50 Kroners per adult and a lot of parking space for free.Important place during WW2. Also, when returning back, there are no signboards for E39 direction, until you reach Lyngdal.

The old lighthouse with the wonderful view was great. The old "lighthouse" with the open fireplace used from beginning was interesting to see. All the exhibitions were wonderful. The story/pictures of the bombed ship with all the prisoner of war that drowned was a sad story. The old German fortress remains from the 2nd world war was also interesting.
