About

A family-friendly hike that locals love: about 9 km out and back from Leknes harbour to the 151 m summit of Haugheia, with views over Vestvågøy, Flakstadøya and the Nappstraumen strait, all in 3 hours.

We start at Leknes harbour and walk about 2 km through the neighbourhood to the foot of the hill. After a short steep part on a gravel road, the trail follows the ridge for the last 2 km to the summit at 151 metres.

The view is with you at every step: jagged mountains, colourful houses and crystal-clear sea. Apart from the first climb, the path is mostly flat heathland, well trodden and fine even on wet days. On clear days you can see the snowy peaks on the mainland, and in summer the wildflowers grow large under the midnight sun. There is plenty of time to rest at the top and enjoy the 360-degree view.
