Bergsbotn Viewpoint
Bergsbotn utsiktsplattform
A 44-meter-long wooden viewing platform on the national scenic route, cantilevered over the hillside for views of Bergsbotn Fjord and the surrounding peaks.
The viewpoint sits at a hairpin bend on the Fv862 road. Completed in 2010, it is a 44-meter-long platform of wood and steel that extends out over the slope, offering views of the head of Bergsbotn Fjord, the village of Skaland, and the jagged peaks across the water. It has a parking lot and well-designed restrooms, and it is one of the signature stops on Senja's National Tourist Routes. It is free and open year-round, but icy road surfaces are possible in winter. The drive from Finnsnes takes about an hour, and it's the first stop on the west coast route when entering from the east.
