What you’ll do

Lofoten is a dream destination for many, and rightfully so. You'd be hard-pressed to find more wild and rugged landscapes, and with the changing weather out at sea, you might experience three seasons in just one week (or even in one day). Regardless of the weather, I guarantee that your days here will be brimming with adventures among towering mountains, picturesque fishing villages, and the purest air imaginable.

I suggest starting your Lofoten journey from the northeast and gradually making your way southwest. However, you can also choose to reverse the route, starting from Moskenes where the ferry from Bodø docks. Remember to pre-book your ferry tickets and arrive on time for all departures to and from Lofoten.
