Overview
Visit Helgeland’s account, published by Visit Norway, has Hestmannen shoot at Lekamøya after disappointed love. The king of the Sømna mountains throws his hat between them to protect her. The arrow pierces it, forming Torghatten’s hole; sunrise turns everything to stone.
The same page explains the tunnel through marine erosion, keeping landscape legend distinct from geology. These names identify the selected mountain-personification episode; the brief account supplies no detailed bodies or independent biographies.
