Climbing Flakstadtinden, Lofoten, Norway

Trip report by BestHike editor Rick McCharles

I enjoyed hiking Sandbotnen beach to Ryten Summit out of Fredvang.

Definitely one of the best hikes in Norway. Almost every hiker has Ryten on their Lofoten list.

Everyone en route to Ryten from Ramberg sees this nearby imposing triangular peak. Much less well known.

Surprisingly, it’s quite easy to hike from the backside. There are at least 2 trailheads.

It only takes a couple of hours to get up and down.

Wait on good weather. The views are terrific in every direction.
