Torghatten

After the ferry we continued north to Torghatten which fortunately was a waypoint in our satnav, otherwise it would've been difficult to find as even when you arrive at the car park there's no signs or information! We're finding this a lot in Norway - I guess you're supposed to just know where things are....


Quite a steep climb over fairly rough terrain.
 

Torghatten is a large hole in the side of a mountain. According to legend, it was created when the Horseman shot an arrow through the rock as he was filled with passion for the maiden of Leka whom the king had prevented him having.
 

Smile for the camera
