View of Heiavatnet and the coast

Highlight • Viewpoint

First part of the hiking path to the lake Heiavatnet with an amazing view. During winter time the path can get quite slippery because its covered by ice and snow.

Festvågtind Summit

Highlight • Summit

It can get a bit crowded here. The summit is completely unprotected, and some of the very narrow paths are slippery. Otherwise, you can enjoy beautiful views in almost every direction.

View of Henningsvær from Nippen

Highlight • Viewpoint

A stunning view. Not exactly easy in winter, though. Spikes and gaiters are essential, and you can't really see the path; you can only guess where you're going. But the view from the top is absolutely worth it.
