How to get there
The carvings have been repainted and the site is signposted near the road between Dokka in Nordre Land and Aurdal in Nord-Aurdal. The river Etna runs approximately 10 meters away, and in spring nearly floods the site.
There is also a small wooden bridge near the site to provide access and to limit wear on the carvings.
