    Hiking

    Legend has it that a giant troll sat there to rest and left that truly enormous ass print! The climb is steep, but the view is worth it !!!
    Small parking lot right at the foot.


    A giant troll is said to have sit down there to rest, leaving this huge pit in the mountain. It's a steep hike but the sight over the fjord and Ísafjörður is definitely worth it! Parking at the start of the hike.

    Hiking

    From the parking bay by the road, a short but steep path leads up about 170 meters in altitude to this beautiful viewpoint overlooking Isafjördur and the fjord.
