We have left Holandsfjorden in the morning just to stop after 15nm at the island-pearl of Bolga.
Although the sun does not set anymore at our current latitude, we most likely won’t see it for the rest of the week – series of rain days are forecasted.
When I spotted a two hour window during the day without drizzle, I grabbed the chance to get up to Bolgtinden, the island’s landmark. An interesting hike, easy and demanding alternating going hand in hand. Finally, crawling over the ridge on the last stretch was not for me, so I missed the summit while still getting granted with some spectacular views. Slippery when wet! Know your limit.
Some people say, Helgeland is as nice as Lofoten but less touristy. We shall find out over the next few month.
Fair winds…
