Lille Festvåg is the left-hand of this fine pair of cliffs, tall and barrel shaped and seamed with many cracks and grooves. Approach - From the start of the Festvåvtinden path, scramble left around several large boulders, then head straight up the hillside to the cliff base. Descent - Abseil from a tree into the gully between Lille and Store Festvåg, then make a second abseil from a fixed nut back to the cliff base.
