On the mountain there is a circle of rocks that is called the Altar Ring. Some theories maintain it was a Sami cult centre. But most likely the rock formation was used to capture falcons.
About the activity
The most coveted ones were the light-coloured variations of the gerfalcon. Today worship services are conducted here once a year in the middle of July.
Time
The whole year
Equipment
In Winter you need skiis or snowshoes to get here. In the summer you need proper hiking boots, since it is a long walk from the closest parking lot.
