The red paint-marked path took us up slabs over a rocky crest with pools in crevasses and then up steeper rocks provided with a chain. I found the chain got in the way up and down and effectively made it harder to climb. A much less steep section lead to the summit. There is a little communication mast here. We wondered how essential it was on this small island. The mast and its electricity pylons were a bit of an eyesore, to be honest.
We drank in the view for a while. A Hurtigbåt passed, weaving through the islands. As we moved off a swallowtail butterfly was being mobbed by red admiral butterflies. Neither of us had seen swallowtail before.
We climbed down beside the dratted chain to the trail round the West side of the mountain. Then we climbed the excellent trail construction to the cave from the West, sescending by the trail to the start.
