View of Forsfjord

Highlight • Viewpoint

Forsfjord lies right in the thick of Moskenesøya's breathlessly spectacular heartland. Here, jagged, charismatic peaks jostle for attention above a glacier carved landscape of layered lakes and fjords. It's the stuff that hiking dreams are made of.

Very steep trail to Tennesvatnet

Highlight • Trail

The trail ascending to Tennesvatnet is very steep, often slippery and contains sections of significant exposure. Although there is a path to follow it can become obscured by bracken at times.

The trail beyond Tennesvatnet continues to be very demanding. Make an honest assessment of your abilities and experience, your equipment and the conditions before attempting this route.
