Stop or I’ll Shoot
When travelling in Norway it is important to know danger signs. This is one of them: FARE SKYTEFELT means ‘shooting range’. These can be found scattered throughout long stretches of land along highways. They are army practice areas. Hang on – bullets can’t read! How do they know to stop before the sign? Heaven forbid you should get stuck on a road with a shooting range on both sides!

hi!
As I’m currently working for the Norwegian army, i can tell that there is huge mounds or walls of sand hindering bullets going as far as being lethal, or escape the shooting range at all (Unless someone have the aim of an all-out bad guy of random action movies).
but indeed, don’t walk into those areas, whereas you might find yourself in between “ilden og veden”
Also, being a native Norwegian reading your blog from a foreign point of view, makes it feel like I’m somewhat rediscovering my beloved country. Keep up this wondrous blog
