This large hill surrounded by water on either side is easily climbed due to its rounded shape and the good trail that crosses it. Even though the peak is not particularly high, it boasts an outstanding 360° view with the Leknes plateau and Buksnesfjord to the east and south, the Norwegian Sea to the west and, to the north, the impressive Himmeltindan mountain that towers almost 1000m above sea level. An easy hike that is great to do as a family.
