Risor
Risør lies close to Kragerø and is also a popular tourist destination, but is somewhat quieter. Nevertheless Risør has a lively harbour as well, with a wide variety of restaurants and shops with, for example, books and antiques. In the old centre many of the old wooden buildings have been preserved. The Norwegian culture is thriving here: you encounter Norwegian handicraft wherever you go, and in the first week of August a wooden boats festival takes place in Risør.
Risør is located beside the sea, with its many islands off the coast. In the hinterland of Risør there is a landscape made up of lakes and hills. So endless options for hiking, fishing, canoeing and swimming.
