Brønnøy is a scenic municipality, geographically
situated in the middle of Norway. The surrounding landscape
is a Norway in miniature: High mountains and deep fjords,
rivers and lakes full of fish, a beautiful coastline with
literally thousands of islands and skerries. Brønnøy
municipality is a haven for those who enjoy boating. Here
access to a boat is almost a requirement. Fish is abundant
and the sea is important both as a food resource, for vacation
and recreation.
Mount Torghatten is the municipality's greatest tourist attraction.
It is 260 metres high and 160 metres long with a 35 metre
high and 15-20 metre wide hole trough the middle of it. The
hole was created thousands of years ago by ice and water.
Another tourist attraction is "Steinar Breiflabb",
a large sculpture of stone in the middle of the Brønnøy
sound. The sculpture represents Brønnøy municipality's
contribution to an international art project called "Artscape
Nordland".
