Børvasstindan is the name of the massif south of the town of Bodø in Norway. 'Tind' means tooth in Norwegian. The various peaks of this chain of mountains are about 1000 meters high. Nearby is another point of interest: the world's strongest tidal current, the so-called 'Saltstraumen'. In the course of about six hours 372 million cubic metres of sea water is squeezed through a 150 meters wide and 31 meter deep passage in- or out of the fjord, with a flow rate of approximately 40 km per hour.
