A coastal climb on Andøya over white-sand beaches.

The trailhead is near Bleik in Vesterålen, Nordland, about 137 km from Tromsø. The walk is 8 km with 350 m of ascent and takes 3 hrs, and the usual season is June to September. The closest scenic drive is the Andøya route, roughly 13 km away.

Why it's loved. A quiet alternative to the busier Lofoten trails, with whale-coast views.

Skip the crowds. This is the quieter alternative to Reinebringen, same kind of reward, far fewer people.

Season: June to September
