After a while it led to a large slap overlooking the western part of the fjord and the open North Sea. Despite the overcast sky and the dimmed colours, it was one of these wow-views that you find so often in Norwegian landscapes. From that slab the path dropped down to a small lake and the along the mountain flank leading down to the fjord.
I still had no clue what that Kolbolten could be and just followed the signs until the path reached a crevice above the fjord with a rock trapped between the cliffs. That obviously was the Kolbolten and by itself would not have been worth the effort hiking down here. But the vistas on the way were and so I soon turned round and hiked back up and along the ridge to the parking. That had been a nice side trip to disperse the drive. I ate a bit and then was back on the road and about an hour later reached Borshavn.
A little bit of wind was blowing, and I checked the point to make sure I wasn´t missing anything. It was side-onshore and the waves were small and a lonely kite-boarder was playing around. I wasn´t interested and went back to the harbour where I bough a burger in the kiosk for dinner and went to bed soon after.
