No less than 140 bird species have been registered here and around 50 of these nest in the area. With 140 different bird species registered, it’s a haven for bird watchers along the lake. In winter, there is a large number of ducks, such as Goldeneye ducks and mallards and occasionally Lappish ducks. Along the water’s edge, well hidden in the overhanging scrubland between Mosvangen camping and Stavanger Art Museum, several rare bird species find themselves at ease. Near the art museum, there is a sculpture park. Text: VisitStavanger.com
