Koppsåna Kulturminne, Dølemo, Åmli

Показать описание
Our first stop for summer 2021 Norway road trip to Stavanger. Koppsåna Kulturminne in Dølemo, Åmli.
The place was initially a facility to transport timber from the inland areas.
The timber will be floated in the river and go all the way from the forest till this Koppsåna facility. The facility was built in the 1880s, the golden years of the shipping industry in Southern Norway.
It was 2 hours drive from our place. Since it's summer, it's nice to go camping and we spent the night here before continue our driving to Stavanger.
By the way, in Norway we have a law called allemannsretten which means right of access. The term covers most shores, bogs, forests, and mountains.
The law does not apply to 'fenced land', which is private and included cultivated land such as ploughed fields with or without crops, meadows, pastures and gardens, as well as young plantations, building plots and industrial areas.
However, you can access fields and meadows from 15 October to 30 April when the ground is frozen or covered with snow.
Note that “fenced land” does not need to actually be fenced.
The main rules of the law are easy:
-Be considerate and thoughtful.
-Don't damage nature and the surroundings.
-Leave the landscape as you would want to find it.
Useful guidelines
You may put up a tent, or sleep under the stars, anywhere in the countryside, forests or mountains, as long as you stay at least 150 metres away from the nearest inhabited house or cabin. This rule also applies to vans, mobile homes, and caravans. If you want to stay for more than two nights in the same place, you must ask the landowner's permission, except in the mountains or in very remote areas.
