Top 10 Mountains in Nordland, Northern Norway

May 29, 2021 Sachiko Swiger

Typified by steep mountains and the flat lowlands where they meet the Norwegian Sea, Nordland is known for its stunning scenery. The Lofoten Islands off the mainland are considered among the world's best for travelers and include unique attractions like the Lofotr Viking Museum at Borg. Saltstraumen near Bodo has the world's strongest tidal current. Further south, Vega has been designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its age-old lifestyle of fishing and eider duck down harvesting.

Stetind Mountain

Stetind – Norway’s national mountain Stetind in Tysfjord is a majestic natural landmark with its extremely characteristic shape in the beautiful North Norwegian fjord landscape. With a height of 1392 m directly from the fjord, Norway’s national mountain, also called “God’s anvil”, juts out like an obelisk in the mountain wilds. You may go on family-friendly walks to spots in the “lower” parts of the mountain – or complete the lofty ascent accompanied by a local guide. Stetind also offers “stern pleasures” for experienced mountain climbers.

In my visits to Bodø I always run up to Keiservarden. Excellent view of city and nature around. Can choose to access by gravel or forrest/sherpa Trail. Easy access to further mountaina from here. Highly recommended.

This hike is one of the easiest hike in Lofoten, but do provide a very good view. Not a far drive from Svolvær or Henningsvær.

Reviewed By Vetlebere - Bodo, Norway

Ride a car or ask a bus driver to let you off at the starting point. Follow the trail and the signs. One safe but semi-steep segment in the forest after about 1/3 of the way, with ropes you can support yourself on. Slightly steep towards the top, but still safe. Popular low-to-medium effort hike.
