About this route

The drive along the west coast of Senja offers a journey through changing landscapes.

The steep mountains plunging straight into the ocean are a breathtaking sight, and the most prominent feature on this route.

The road twists and turns along deep fiords and through villages that cling to the narrow stripe between mountains and sea.

Just as dramatic as the mountain peaks of Okshornan rising up from the sea, just as serene is Senja with its idyllic islets and skerries in Bergsfjord. Detours from the road to the fishing villages of Husøy, Bøvær and Mefjordvær are great experiences.

Meine Notizen

My happy place? This route! It doesnt matter if you go in the winter or summer. This place is breathtaking beautiful! The roads are fantastic and the stops are all good. 1 note for the boat from and to Senja: They are busy and are first come first serve. If your car is not in one of the lines in front of the ferry: slim chances you will fit on it. Driving to Andenes is 7 to 8 hours so either have a backup or be very very early! You also want to walk the Hesten hike! its 2 hours of struggle but i cant really imagine a better view!

This is the place you want to stay if you are going to hike Hesten. Hesten is one of the 2 amazing mountains. You walk the ridge of to the top of Hesten to see the amazing mountain called Segla. You can walk Segla too but its more difficult.
