Tjeldbergtinden, Mountain summit in Vågan, Norway
The Tjeldbergtinden mountain reaches a height of 367 meters and features two distinct summits overlooking Svolvær, Kabelvåg, and the Vestfjord waters.
The mountain path developed from traditional routes used by local fishermen and farmers to monitor weather conditions and fishing grounds in the Lofoten archipelago.
Norwegian mountain hiking traditions continue at Tjeldbergtinden, where locals and visitors gather during summer solstice to watch the midnight sun.
The hiking trail starts near Osan shipbuilding yard, with parking available at the Esso gas station, and takes approximately 3 to 5 hours to complete.
The mountain ridge provides simultaneous views of three significant lakes: Stor-Kongsvatnet, Madsvatnet, and Karlsvatnet, along with the surrounding mountain peaks.
