After almost 7 hours of driving from Tromsø to Kalle with Ilona, I was feeling a bit stiff in my legs and had not really thought much about taking a long evening hike. However, we were greeted at the campsite by swarms of mosquitoes and within minutes of putting up our tents we had already dived inside to take shelter from the mygg-attack. So then we had the option of either hiding in our tents for the rest of the beautiful evening or going out for a trip and hoping there would not be any mosquitoes there for company. We took the latter option.
Jan Fredrik had recommended the trip up Glomtinden since it was only a short walk and not very high, and the path was good all the way up. We drove about 10 minutes from Kalle to a parking space by the side of the road towards Rørvik, just after a small tunnel, and we followed the track up to Glomtinden from there. It was an easy-going route which rose gently for most of the way up until the last 50m to the top. Being so close to Vågakallen gave us a grand view of its northern side, plus reallllllllly nice views towards Svolvær and the surrounding mountains, none of which I was familiar with.
There was one other guy on the top at the same time as us, and I got the impression he was trying his best not to notice that there were two foreign girls acting a bit strange (we were doing some jumping and balancing poses for the camera).
Some panoramas
Anyway, after we were satisfied that we'd had enough of the views, we ambled on back down to the car again. Seemed like a nice trip to welcome us to Lofoten!
