Yesterday we arrived at Henningsvær and the weather forecast was not that good so I decided to go for a late run yesterday evening. Drove to Rørviksvatnet and parked on the side of E10 and ran/walked up to Glomstinden. Must admit that my legs are tired after last week hardships, so I went pretty slow. So a good thing that this top is easily accessible. I was actually told today that the fishermen used back in the days to climb up to this top to try to forecast the weather. Just a quick walk and they could see all the way to Vestvågøy in the west, all of Vestfjorden and Hamarøy in the east. Hence the name “Glomtinden”, the “staretop”
Glomtinden
View west, towards Vestvågøya
View east towards Kabelvåg.
Almost back to the car, Rørvikvatnet was very calm this evening.
