Vengsøytraversen

 
 

A hike that requires a lot from you, it is challenging and "airy". It starts in Stordalen, goes up to the first mountain top, Vengsøytinden, continues to Horntinden, Kvantotinden and lastly Stortinden. From Stortinden you start going down hill and complete the hike just by the white "church". During this hike you get the amazing view of the ocean in the west, the smaller islands facing north and the mountains on Kvaløya facing south.

The hike to Rekvika is very nice and takes about 3 hours to complete. Rekvika is also the hidden gem on Vengsøy, a white beach surrounded by great mountains. You can also travel here by boat.

It is also possible to bring some wood and have a barbecue in the hut, Gammen. It will take about 10-15 minutes of walking.
