Tustnastabban

To the east, the mountains of Tustna and Stabblandet rise steeply from the sea — known as the Tustnastabban — like trolls turned to stone at sunrise. This island landscape is known for its dramatic peaks, sheltered coves, and scattered farms. Many locals still live off fishing, goat herding, and small-scale agriculture. In earlier times, Tustna was also an important hub for boat building, and the mountains are tied to old tales of love and sorcery. The island may seem quiet and humble, but the nature, as you can see, is grand and powerful. From the sea, you’ll spot peaks like Skarven, Stabben, and Jurtinden rising above the coastal passage. On calm days, they reflect on the water's surface with an eerie stillness. And if you're up for a real challenge, consider the Seven Peaks Nightmare – an extreme mountain trek across all seven of Tustna and Stabblandet’s peaks. That’s over 30 kilometers and 3,400 vertical meters, including climbing, narrow ridgelines, and views you’ll never forget. These mountains are always listening. Ask them a question — and if you’re quiet enough, they might just answer.
