Itinerary description

Ruta circular des de Hovdan passant per:
- Ryten (3.5 km)

La platja de Kavalvika es un lloc idíl·lic que cal visitar. Una platja de sorra blanca envoltada d’escarpades muntanyes, entre les que destaca el RYTEN amb un penya-segat que s’aixeca més de 500 metres. El mirador del Ryten té una de les vistes més complertes i impressionants de les illes Lofoten: L’oceà obert amb les onades que acaricien la blanca platja, els penya-segats, els prats verds i humits, les altes muntanyes que envolten la platja i la majestuositat dels fiords. Sens dubte una de les millors excursions per fer a les Lofoten. I si el temps i les forces acompanyen encara ens podem arribar al veí cim de Middagstinden. Hi ha diferents maneres de fer l’excursió i diferents punts on començar i acabar. Es pot fer travessa (calen dos cotxes) o circular. Aquesta es la circular més curta que hem trobat, i al mateix temps molt complerta i amb varietat de paisatges.
ALTITUD: 543 m.
DIFICULTAT: Fàcil/Moderat.
TIPUS TERRENY: Inicialment zones herboses i zones humides. La baixada de Forsvatnet a Kavalvika es una tartera. Sorra de platja. La pujada fins a Skoren es un tram rocós.
DURADA: Entre 3 i 4 h. Per a Middagstinden cal afegir 1 hora més
PUNT D’INICI: Bergland . 2 kilòmetres al SW de Fredvang i 900 m abans de l’aparcament de Kavalvika.

Kavalvika beach is an idyllic place that must be visited. A white sand beach surrounded by steep mountains, among which the RYTEN stands out with a cliff that rises more than 500 meters. The Ryten viewpoint has one of the most complete and impressive views of the Lofoten Islands: The open ocean with the waves caressing the white beach, the cliffs, the green and wet meadows, the high mountains that surround the beach and the majesty of the fjords. Undoubtedly one of the best excursions to do in Lofoten. And if the weather and strength are with us we can still reach the neighboring peak of Middagstinden. There are different ways to do the excursion and different points to start and end. You can cross (two cars are needed) or cycle. This is the shortest circular we have found, and at the same time very complete and with a variety of landscapes.
HEIGHT: 543 m.
DIFFICULTY: Easy/Moderate.
TERRAIN TYPE: Initially grassy areas and wet areas. The descent from Forsvatnet to Kavalvika is scree. Beach sand. The climb up to Skoren is a rocky stretch.
TIME: Between 3 and 4 hours. For Middagstinden you need to add 1 more hour
STARTING POINT: Bergland. 2 kilometers SW of Fredvang and 900 m before the Kavalvika car park.
