Stangarháls Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

Absolutely gorgeous views open up once you make it to the top. Some wildlife and even flowers. Later in the season lots of blueberries. If you like using Nordic poles, take them with you. Your knees will love them on the way down.

The last few meters to the starting point on foot.
Up the red route to the ridge. Then along a valley with many very beautiful lava mountains. …
