Magma Geopark, UNESCO Geopark in Rogaland, Norway.
The Magma Geopark stretches across 2,329 square kilometers in southwestern Norway, encompassing the municipalities of Eigersund, Sokndal, Lund, Bjerkreim, and Flekkefjord.
The geological formations of the park date back 1.5 billion years when the region contained red-hot magma streams and mountains of the Sveconorwegian range.
The geopark includes 46 locations selected for their geological importance and connection to local traditions, including ancient mines and historical landmarks.
Visitors can reach the geopark administration office in Egersund by taking an hourly train from Stavanger on the Jæren Line.
The park contains Europe's largest deposit of anorthosite, a volcanic rock that occurs more frequently on the Moon than on Earth.
