This Itinerary Is Not Valid As a Ticket Last updated: 29.04.2021 This is a “Travel like the locals” tour. The tours use public transport, i.e. regular buses, ferries and boats, but we have done the planning for you so that you can concentrate on enjoying your trip. You travel on your own - there is no guide or tour leader. On most of our tours you must change several times between different buses/ferries/boats, and it is up to you to make sure you catch your connections – truly travelling like a local! (The tours are set up so that the buses, ferries and boats connect.) Round trip from Florø to the saga island of Kinn Florø – Kinn - Florø This trip takes you with the local ferry from Florø to the beautiful, green saga island of Kinn. Let yourself be captivated by the island, its history and the beautiful scenery. When you disembark on Kinn, follow the road to the right to Kinn Church, one of the oldest stone churches in Norway. The walk to the church takes approx. 30 minutes along a 1 km gravel road. From Kinn Church, you can walk towards the towering mountain cleft in two: Kinnaklova. And if you dare, you can climb it to enjoy the view. Use the same waymarked path up and down Kinnaklova, following it through the ravine. This path will take you back to the quay where the local ferry moors. The walk around the island is 4 km and takes about 2 hours. Note! You must telephone the boat before 14.30 to say that you want to be picked up from Kinn. The telephone number for the boat can be found in the passenger shelter at the quay. Departure from: Florø quay (kai) Itinerary This itinerary is not valid as a ticket. .

  • A Pilgrimage Over Land and Water on the West Coast Of
    SUNNIVALEIA FROM BERGEN TO SELJE Gulatinget and the Millstone-quarries in Hyllestad are two more central Selja Kloster historic sites on the western coast of Norway. The activities here took place in an age of conflict resulting in great changes to society: the trans- SUNNIVALEIA ition from the time of the vikings to the Middle Ages. Gulatinget, the Millstone-quarries, the Selja Monastery and the Kinn Church, have all played an important role in allowing Christianity to gain a foothold in this – a pilgrimage over land and water country. on the west coast of Norway THE GULATING was a legal assembly held annually in Gulen between AD 900 and 1300. Here chieftains, men of distinction and free men owning farmland met BERGEN ∙ KINN ∙ SELJE to discuss problems and attempt to solve them – often by passing rele- vant laws. Gulatinget,was one of the oldest and largest medieval assem- blies in the Nordic region, and Eivindvik seems to have been the site of the assemby. Two large crosses of stone produced in Hyllestad around AD 1000 are still found here. www.gulatinget.no THE MILLSTONEPARK IN HYLLESTAD For more than 1200 years millstones for hand- and watermills have been produced from several quarries in Hyllestad. This large-scale industry started in the beginning of the Viking Ages and continued through the Medieval Ages and up till our time. This commodity was exported to all areas in Norway and to Iceland, Sweden and Denmark as well. Most of the historic stone-crosses along the coast of Norway were made here. The crosses in Korssund, Vilnes and Kinn originate from these quarries.

BISPEVISITAS Biskop Halvor Nordhaug kjem på visitas frå 17. – 22. mars til Bru, Eikefjord, Kinn og Nordal sokn. Biskopen kjem først og fremst for å oppmuntre og setje mot i kyrkjelydane. Vonleg vil både vi og han nytte høvet til å rose kvarandre for godt arbeid og utfor- dre til fornya innsats i møte med dei utfordringane vi har i kyrkjelydane våre og samfunnet omkring oss. Førre bispevisitas var ved Biskop Ole D. Hagesæther 3. søndag etter påske, 17. april 2005. Programmet for visitasen er omfattande. Her er møter med kommunen, kveldsbøn, vitjing på Fjord Base, skulegudstenester, møte med stab og sokneråda, deltaking på babysang, kultur- kveld og visitasgudsteneste. konfirmantar, vaksne, besteforeldre og tilsette i lag som funge- rer best. Om ein skal sjå på kvar busettinga og folketalet er i auke – og kvar barnetala er store – så peikar Eikefjord sentrum, Brandsøy og Florø by seg ut som stader vi kanskje bør satse meir. GUDSTENESTER OG KYRKJEMUSIKK Gudstenesteframmøtet har vore sviktande i heile perioden i alle kyrkjene. Nedgangen skuldast ikkje færre gudstenester, men nedgang i folketal i bygdene og mindre interesse for å delta i gudstenester. Det kan sjå ut som ein tendens at folk går kvar for seg til gudsteneste. Det er ikkje lenger slik at vi går til gudsteneste i lag, det vere seg familiar, ektepar og vener. Det har vore prøvd ulike strategiar for å motvirke dette, men ingen ser ut til å ha lukkast særleg godt.
