Timeline
16:18
Grab a drink at Ølhallen. It is a short walk away and open until 18:00 on weekdays, giving you plenty of time before the evening rush.
16:48
Walk to Perspektivet Folkeparken. It is a 26-minute walk from the anchor in a WSW direction. Arrive early to find a quiet spot with a view.
17:03
Watch the sun set toward the WSW. The golden light begins at 15:27, painting the sky just before the sun dips below the horizon at 17:03.
17:33
End the evening at Skarven. This 1920s margarine factory serves good fish and beer well into the night. It is a 12-minute walk from the anchor, making it a logical stop after your walk back.
Local tip
The walk to Perspektivet is long, so wear layers. The wind off the fjord can be sharp even in October.
