What you can expect

The bus tour gives you a unique access to the three main archaeological sites along with an archaeologist.

Ales Stenar Is the Nordic region’s largest standing ship. Situated at the edge of a steep, it has a fantastic view of the Baltic Sea. Ales Stenar is dated to about 600 E. Kr. But we can also reveal the site’s lesser-known archaeology that is returning us to the Stone Age.

Rock art site in Järrestad, also called the Dancer’s rock, is located in a magical landscape next to a bog with graves right next to it. The large rock carvings panel that contains more than 1 200 pour images from about 1 800-500 BC.

Kiviksgraven, also known as the Kings grave, is Scandinavia’s widest Bronze Age cairn. The rock carvings found on the rocks of the cist in the centre make it unique, the only one of its kind. A large excavation 1931 gave material that is still used today for new research into the cairn and its history. Here you also find Café Sågmöllan with museum shop and the area’s tastiest coffee according to many!
