Såner Church is a modern striking looking church. it was built in 2000 after its predecessor (from 1880) was tragically destroyed by fire in 1995. The quiet surrounding cemetery provides a practical bonus where you can fill up your water bottle before continuing your journey.

Lovely little café – highly recommended! The homemade pizzas are great, and if the weather turns, there are books and games to keep you entertained while you wait

Stop by Alby Kafe for freshly baked wheat pastries such as cinnamon buns and vanilla buns, a slice of carrot cake or a taste of the famous Albykringla. For goodies in a glass, there is both locally produced apple juice from Dyre Gård and freshly squeezed orange juice on the menu. The cafe also makes sandwiches that will appeal to most people!
