For my taste a bit too touristy but with us were also 20 snapping tourists at the start.

August 8, 2022,Wanderung Reinebringen Lofoten 🇧🇻

1,987 steps to the top. These were created by Sherpas☝️. Goes up extremely steep. It's not for everyone 😜. Many had problems (no railing, not to hold on to) due to a lack of head for heights/fear of heights.

Today we went to the Reinebringen, the local mountain of the fishing village of Reine at the southern end of the Lofoten. Unfortunately, we only had limited visibility. But for local conditions we could be glad that it neither rained nor stormed or even snowed. We wouldn't have gotten cold, because 460 meters in altitude over just 1.5 km "heated …

Finally, it worked out... The hike to Reinebringen has been on the list for a long time and now we have taken the 1978 steps under our hiking boots. And what can you say, the tour is demanding, as you only walk uphill on steps, but it is also legendary!
With the weather, you just need a bit of luck. …

Today I visited what is probably the most famous hiking destination in the Lofoten Islands, Reinebringen near the fishing village of Reine. I also tried out public transport for the first time, taking a scenic bus. It was much more relaxing than having to search for a parking space in the overcrowded village. The only downside is that the bus …

Getting up early was worth it, because we are on the mountain ahead of the large crowds of tourists. The breathtaking view from the top must be earned; The staircase on the Reinebringen has 1978 steps.

We started the hike from the old car park directly after the tunnel towards A. Unfortunately, it was blocked with stones, so we split up. Parking from the public park in Reine costs 4€/h (44 NOK). The climb is steep compared to some reviews, but there are no exposed areas. The steps are very wide and offer enough space for …

One of the hotspot tours in the Lofoten Islands, with arguably the most famous summit view in the entire region.

A technically undemanding tour, but thanks to the absolutely fantastic weather, it was quite a sweaty climb today. Who would have expected a heat wave in Northern Norway? Today's high was 25 degrees!
From the cute little town of Reine, …

September 18, 2024,Reinebringen - 27 | 17 - Mit Rucksack und Fotos machen - Treppenminuten bis Aussichtspunkt und wieder runter - Beat it ;-)

Technically easy path - impossible to get lost because the path is completely covered in steps (what a masterpiece). But I don't want to experience the queues in the season.

Danger points: Without fitness, trained thighs and good knees, the round can quickly become a torture. You wouldn't believe how many people I overtook and I just walked quickly - …
