Dørvika

Dørvika is located on the southern side of Lysefjorden, approximately 6 km northeast of Forsand town center. It is known for being the finest beach in the fjord, drawing many visitors during the summer months. The beach is surrounded by beautiful pine forests, and a small stream runs through the area. Rare mosses also thrive on the slope above.

Since the 1600s, Dørvika has been inhabited and was originally a croft under Vika. Today, the area is managed by Ryfylke Friluftsråd. The beach is equipped with restrooms and is accessible by both car and boat. Aside from swimming, Dørvika is popular among kayakers, and tour cyclists who love to explore the beautiful surroundings.
