This short, easy hike takes you over a little trail to one of the hidden jewels of Moskenes Island: Svartvatnet Lake.

It's definitely a bit of a secret hike in the sense that most tourists drive by without knowing there's an epic hike that often misses all the big crowds of summer.

Once you get up into the mountains, you'll see the amazing lake that overlooks the natural reservoir of Solbjørnvatnet, nestled in its green setting. The sharp peaks that surround it give this site a majestic look.

You can rapidly—and almost effortlessly—reach these impressive landscapes where nature is still intact, in the heart of Moskenes Island.
