Lista fyr rises 34 metres above the flat, open landscape at the western tip of the Lista peninsula. The granite tower dates from 1853, and on summer days you can climb its 134 steps for views over beaches, dunes and the North Sea. The keeper's buildings house a gallery, a café and Lista Bird Observatory, one of Norway's top migration spots.
