Reinebringen

A viewpoint peak behind Reine village, with a stone staircase of roughly 1,978 steps built by Nepalese Sherpas. The view from the summit over Reine and the fjord islands is world-famous.

The trailhead lies near the Reine tunnel (walk along the pedestrian path). The stairs are steep, and the ascent takes about 1 to 1.5 hours to a ridge viewpoint at about 448 m. From the summit you look down on Reine with its red fishermen's cabins, Hamnøy and the fjords, the most classic view in Lofoten. Climbing is prohibited in winter and after snowfall due to avalanche risk. Summer brings crowds, so go early in the morning or in the evening. Entry is free.
