About this destination

Get the riviera feeling in Risør. Picturesque, idyllic, charming; it is possible to use all the guide books clichés when describing Risør - and get away with it. This coastal town is a heritage preserved wooden town that offers cultural festivals, a large archipelago and a long history of wooden boat building.
