Reinebringen Summit Hike

Tackle the 1,978 Sherpa-built stone steps that switchback up Reinebringen with a mountain guide who sets a steady pace and points out the geology and birdlife on the way.

From the 448m ridge the reward is Lofoten’s most photographed panorama — the red rorbuer of Reine scattered across emerald straits, jagged peaks falling sheer into the sea. You linger at the top before the careful descent.
