🏔️ Distance & Elevation: Approx. 5 km round trip, 370 hm

This lesser-known hike rewards you with beautiful views over the Storfjord and is a great option if you're looking for a quieter alternative to the more famous viewpoints in the area.
The trail is moderate and about 5 km long with 370 meters of elevation gain – a bit of a workout, but nothing too extreme.

To reach the trailhead, you'll need to drive up a narrow private toll road. Payment is done the old-school way: you write your license plate on an envelope and drop your toll fee into a mailbox.
🚐 Important: Overnight stays are not allowed at the parking area, so if you're traveling with a campervan, plan accordingly.
