Stetind normal route rock climbing trip

Join me on this 1-day rock climbing trip and reach the summit of Stetind (1392 m), Norway's national mountain! This stunning peak is an impressive high granite monolith. It has an obelisk shape that gives it a unique look.

The Stetind lies in Tysfjord, about an hour drive from Narvik. Most important, I can assure the view from the top is unforgettable!

We will start our climb from the parking lot at the foot of the west ridge of Stetind. From that point, we will hike for about 3 to 4 hours to the Halls fortopp, the east summit. The last stretch to the main summit goes along the east ridge, the normal route. Our climb here will be mostly easy but airy scrambling.

Then, about half way along the ridge, we will find a marked crux known as Mysosten. This is where we will have to climb up an impressive 15-20 meter portion (norwegian grade 4+). It has an 800 meter fall straight down to the valley below us!

We will climb about 1400 meters to the summit of Stetind. It is 10 kilometres in length approximately. Also, getting to the summit and back  will take us between 10 to 14 hours.

In order to join this climb you need to have experience in rugged terrain. Besides, although you don't need to be an experienced climber, you should feel comfortable in exposed and airy terrain.
