 July 5th    Husøy - Senjahopen

Yttersia (= The Outside but often implying "of Senja") famous for its wild and exposed landscape. Narrow  mountainous (thus steep) peninsulas alternates with fjords that are open to the Arctic Ocean. Today there are tunnels through the peninsulas connecting the fishing villages in the fjords, but for a boateoce the route from one village to the next must go out on fjord (on normal days against wind and waves) round the point of the peninsula out in the open ocean and in the next fjord.
