Hiking
In 1922, the Norwegian Wegart began cutting stone on Sandö. The company had a maximum capacity of 74 men. In 1925, the first load of paving stones was shipped to Argentina. The paving stones were transported by horse and cart across the island to the steamboat pier. The path that is now used for walking and jogging was built at that time. The paving stone era ended in Smögen in 1929. You can still walk on streets in Buenos Aires whose stones were cut on Smögen or in Bohuslän.
