The summit of the Festvågtind with summit book and cross, which after a long climb with a charming view of the fishing village Henningsvær can pay - if the weather permits.
The summit can be reached from the trail parking lot very well on the trail through the boulder field. However, sturdy shoes and sure-footedness are needed!

It can get a bit crowded here. The summit is completely unprotected, and some of the very narrow paths are slippery. Otherwise, you can enjoy beautiful views in almost every direction.
