Hiking to Kongstindan








- Type of hike : Go back
- Visibility of the route : Good
- Start/Finish : Coming from Kabelvåg, leave Route E10 at the Osan crossroads (between huge sheds for repairing boats, and a gas station). Take a left onto the Kongsvatnveien road till you reach the edge of the lake. Then take the right-hand road, which becomes unpaved but drivable, and follow it for about 1 km (0.6 mi.) to the parking lot.
- GPS Point : Trail start: N68° 14.490' E14° 31.911'
Summit: N68° 14.867' E14° 29.578' - Note : Difficult when wet. The trail goes over rocky slabs'extremely slippery when wet. That's why we advise you to choose a day of dry, clear weather for this hike. Finally, people who get dizzy should be aware that the crest line is sometimes narrow and you'll have to walk near a sheer drop in certain places.
This slender peak faces the summit of Tjeldbergtinden. It is higher than Tjeldbergtinden and gives you a remarkable panorama over the town of Svolvær and the northern part of Vågan Island. You make the ascent on a good trail over a straight ridge line—sometimes dizzying, but not dangerous when the ground is dry.
