The hike leaves from the small village of Bø (along the 996 road ' Careful! several hamlets in the Lofoten Islands have the same name!). When you come from the south, park in the parking area on the right, just before the small bridge that crosses the stream. The most direct trail is not really visible but it starts just before the bridge and passes through a little forest of birch trees.

Description

This beautiful isolated mountain range stands to the north-west of the island of Vestvågøya, a little off the main E10 road. Hikers here are few and far between despite the fact that the area is very beautiful and offers a wide range of panoramic views. The hike is possible either as a return trip or in a loop returning via the north shore of Lake Dalvatnet.
