Hike Description

This is an relatively easy hike that starts from E6 on Kråkmofjellet. Follow the marked and signposted path. The summit is visible all the way and there is only a 300 m height difference from the starting point on the E6 to the top of Mørsvikvasstinden, 640 m above sea level.

Easiest to follow a path, but you can choose your own paths to the destination. At the start, it may be good to walk a little north of Lomtjønna to avoid bogs and thickets.

From the top you get a lovely view down towards Mørsvikvatnet and the Mørsvikfjord to the south. To the north lie Grønnvatnet and Tennvatnet with the majestic Kråkmotinden as a backdrop. The trip is equally beautiful in both summer and winter. In winter, it is nice to take the trip over the two mentioned lakes before ascending to Mørsvikvasstinden.

This hike is one of Saltens Friluftsråd’s selected 55 captivating hikes in the region.
