Trip Summary
The weather forecast was "interesting": 3 or 4 degrees Celsius and strong winds from the north (with gale warnings nearby). Sounds like a nice day for another trip to the outer islands! :-) This time, we chose Golta (south of Telavåg and west of Glesvær), which is wild and nice! We parked at the parking lot near the inner end of Vogga and started our short hike from there. The route is trivial to find and also not very long. Within a few minutes one gets out to the wild rocks near the North Atlantic. And clearly we weren't disappointed (again): very impressive, when the wind works the sea so hard! We walked for a longer while around the rocks and enjoyed the atmosphere, rounding Lutavika and then also Midtvika, before heading back. Even though a shorter trip, it's definitely worth the somewhat longer drive.
