Hiking from the parking lot by Hestvika to the summit of Storhornet on the island of Godøy. The upper right image, and the middle left image, is showing the large space available in the parking lot of Hestvika Bay. The lower left image shows me with the snow-covered Lake Alnesvatnet in the background. The second image in the bottom row of pictures shows my son on the summit, and the third lower image shows the view from the peak of mount Storhornet towards the Town of Ålesund.
On this day a made a hike to the summit Storhornet on Godøy Island off the coast of Møre & Romsdal County on the west coast of Norway, along with my son Dag. We parked at the new parking lot in Hestvika [i.e. The Horse's Bay], where there's plenty of space even during the tourist season, and set out from there. We followed the regular route up to the plateau where Lake Alnesvatnet (250 m.a.m.s.l.) is located, then continued along the lake till we reached the northeast end of it, from where we followed the usual path along the mountain ridge to the summit of the mountain. There was snow all the way up on this particular day (snow often comes and goes during the winter, as the island is located within the Gulf Stream of the Atlantic Ocean). Back down we used the same route as we had used on our way up.
