Here, for the first time during your climb, but not for the last, you will have a beautiful view of Bleiksøya, the iconic image of the small (530ha) pyramidal island, which is 'uninhabited', at least by people. It is known as 'Puffin Island' because it is home to a large breeding colony of Atlantic puffins.

During the strenuous climb, the view back to the sea, the coast, the beach and above all the distinctive island Bleiksøya always compensate.
