Padleperle 6: Storsteinen, Bøkfjorden

# Storsteinen – Bøkfjorden's Hidden Gems The west side of Bøkfjorden is a paddler's dream. Steep mountainsides meet peaceful coves, and suddenly Storsteinen emerges – a massive stone that invites adventure. Do you like bouldering? Bring climbing shoes and explore. For the ambitious: paddle from Høybukt to Kirkenes (13 km each way) as one brilliant day trip. Sheltered conditions make it accessible for most. Here you'll find everything: a nice campsite right by the stone, good cell coverage, firewood from the birch forest, and solid VHF coverage. Water best in the cove – at the headlands you need to be prepared. Storsteinen is one of 14 *paddle gems* in Sør-Varanger. Come and discover why Northern Norway is unbeatable for paddlers.
