Trollholmsund, Lakselv northern Norway
#BoulderSunday created by
My my sister-in-law live in Lakselv, a 10 hour drive from where I live. On one of our visits two years ago we was on a beach nearby named Trollholmsund with some interesting stone formations. The stones consists of dolomite (limestone) which is formed for approx. 700 million years ago.
"The stones is linked to an old Sami legend. According to the legend, troll came walking across the plateau. Some trolls probably came north from Lakselv. With them they have had a coffin with gold and silver. They came down to the sea and couldn't move on. It was just before sunrise, and they were looking for holes big enough to hide. They did not succeed, and turned into stones when the sun rises". Source: Wikipedia.
