Skeisnesset cultural heritage trail and walking trails
If you follow the road north from Herlaugshaugen and Skei, you will come to Skeisnesset. Here, prepared trails wind their way through the coastal heathland, between burial mounds and viewpoints.
In fact, there are 5 walking trails here and more than 20 information signs. Among other things, you will find traces of humans dating back to the Stone Age and right up to the present day, including Stone Age settlement sites and impressive burial sites covered with heaps of stones, geological trails, family trails, rich plant life and an open stone cottage.
Ivarshallaren – hike to viewpoint at Skeisnesset
From Ivarshallaren, you get a panoramic view of the shipping lane, the Helgeland islands and the bird conservation areas to the north and west; Skeisnesset, Leknesøyene, Hortavær and Sklinna.
Bukkatalgen
Bukkatalgen gets its name from an old fairy tale that explains why the rocky slope along the shoreline here is completely white. Bukkatalgen and its bright white colouring have long served as a landmark along the shipping lane, and is well known to seafarers. This spot gives you a view of the Leka Fjord at close proximity.
