Well, there is a road to the left, but this enormous expanse of arranged stones is not a road - but a wall!
This stone wall (in Swedish: stengärdsgård) is a quite traditional way to mark boundaries in the landscape, to denote whose field is whose. They could be made of wood too, but in areas with a lot of stone in the ground, it was a way to get rid of the stone from the fields and put it to better use in dry walls. But they were generally not this enormous, like this one in the village of Repperda, Småland. These were built is a way to provide work and hence an income in the late 1860s (Sweden was at the time hit hard by a famine and the emigration to America was just kicking off, fueled by this) - and the aim was not really the walls themselves but to get all that stone out of the fields so that they could be worked more effectively and hopefully produce more food.
They are called Repperda walls (Repperda murar).

HR:
Večer na punti Šilo. Stari kameni zid, zalazak sunca i ona — tiha, zamišljena. Kadar koji govori o svakodnevici, o ljubavi, o domu.
EN:
Evening on the rocky point of Šilo. An old stone wall, sunset, and her — silent, thoughtful. A moment that speaks of everyday life, love, and home.
FR:
Soirée à Šilo. Un mur de pierres, un coucher de soleil, et elle — silencieuse, pensive. Un instant de vie et d’amour.
DE:
Abend in Šilo. Eine alte Steinmauer, Sonnenuntergang und sie — still, nachdenklich. Ein Moment der Heimat und Liebe.
IT:
Sera a Šilo. Muro di pietre, tramonto e lei — silenziosa, immersa nei pensieri. Un frammento di quotidianità e amore.
ES:
Atardecer en Šilo. Un muro de piedra, el sol que se despide y ella — en silencio, pensativa. Un instante de hogar y ternura.
Im Sommer weiden sicherlich Ziegen auf den Wiesen und die lassen sich von von so einer lächerlichen Steinmauer nicht aufhalten :-)Früher weideten dort vielleicht Schafe und die kamen nicht über die Steinmauer.
In summer goats are sure to graze on the meadows and they can't be stopped by such a ridiculous stone wall :-) Maybe sheep used to graze there and they couldn't get over the stone wall

Luckily the path didn't lead over the stone wall :-)
