Red road through trees

Today was basically a road from the northish west to the southish east od Sweden through a pine forest.  The weather was pretty grey most of the day.  The only interesting thing we found was a 3 metre long rock carving called Sigurdsristingnen - carved around AD 1,000.  It shows Sigurd slaying the dragon Fafnir.  Sigurd is described in Beowulf etc and the story inspired Wagner's ring cycle (not a bike apparently) and of course JRR Tolkein.
