The highest point on the island is the {{convert|81|m|adj=on}} tall Kråkeberget.

The new Ryfast Tunnel was constructed under the fjord that surrounds the island, and the tunnel itself runs under the southern part of the island. Due to the length of the tunnel, a large ventilation shaft was constructed from the tunnel up to the island to provide fresh air inside the tunnel.
