Get ready for an unforgettable adventure to the top of Hestmannen, a legendary peak on the stunning Helgeland coast. This is a challenging 3-hour hike, so you'll want to be in good shape, but the reward is one of the most spectacular panoramic views in all of Norway. The trail gets steep and rocky, and you'll even find a rope to help you on the final push to the summit, which requires a bit of a scramble. From the top, you'll be able to see the famous Seven Sisters mountains, the distant islands of Træna and Lovund, and even the mighty Svartisen glacier on a clear day.
