Hornelen

Hornelen is a mountain in Bremanger Municipality in Vestland county, Norway. The mountain sits on the eastern end of the island of Bremangerlandet, along the Frøysjøen strait, in the Nordfjord region. At 860 metres (2,820 ft), it is the highest sea cliff in Europe, and has for a long time been used as a landmark for naval navigation.

Access and modern tourism
There are two possible routes to reach the summit. Both routes start from roughly sea level and can be initiated at either Berleneset or a parking lot at the cemetery at Hunskår. The easiest route follows a marked hiking trail that is roughly 7 km long and takes about four hours to reach the summit. The second and more demanding route to reach the summit follows a publicly funded via ferrata climbing route named Olavsrute, established in 2022. The route may also be climbed without a guide if one pays a maintenance fee. Due to safety concerns, Bremanger Municipality has wanted to restrict access to the via ferrata so that it cannot be climbed without a hired guide. ==See also==
