Itinerary description

Una bona caminada vora la costa, ben marcada i amb la possibilitat de tornar per la part alta (més dura sobretot amb mal temps)

The Queen's Route is a marked hiking trail along the shoreline between Sto and Nyksund. You can make the round-trip on the mountain trail which is relatively strenuous specially on raining or windy weather.
Bring your drinking water, good walking shoes and raincoat.
Queen Sonja completed this trek in 1994 hence the name.
Nyksund was a fishing village abandoned and now is alive with artists, residents and tourist visitors.
