Lihesten, Mountain summit in Hyllestad, Norway.
Lihesten is a mountain on Norway's fjord coast near Lifjorden, rising to 777 meters. Steep cliffs and rocky formations shape this landscape throughout the summit area.
The mountain formed as part of the geological development of Norway's fjord landscape over millions of years. Its prominent position made it a notable landmark in the local region.
The mountain serves as a central geographical marker for local communities, connecting residents through shared outdoor activities and natural appreciation.
The hike to the summit takes about three hours on marked trails starting from Lekva through forest paths. The plateau at the top provides good orientation for the different marked routes in the area.
At the summit plateau, red-marked trails split into two different directions. This division lets hikers explore different viewpoints over the fjord landscape starting from the same point.
