The mountain Stetind is a well known land mark for the sailors along the coast. The vertical, steep mountain with looks like an anvil, rises majestically from the sea.
Stetind was in 2002 selected as Norway’s national mountain, and is also a favored place for peak climbers.
The known professor and philosopher Arne Næss established himself as King of Stetind when he in the late 1930’s introduced bolt climbing in Norway. A number of impressive technical routes brought him to the top.
