Ullandhaug tower

About

Ullandhaug tower - The telecommunications tower was built in 1964. The tower rises 64 metres on a hill 135 m above sea level. From here you have a marvellous view of Stavanger, Ryfylke and Nordjæren.

Each year the tower is decorated with lights for Christmas.

"Harald's Cairn" was sited here previously and rocks from the top of this older tower are now placed beside Ullandhaugtårn.

We had a nice view from up here. Could see all of the different areas around. Can't go too high up but in the wind, it is better to stay low Read full review

Even though your climb is limited to the first two levels, the 360 degree view from this communications tower overlooking Stavanger and the surrounding area is magnificent. Read full review
