We go on a line trip to Lofoten. With its majestic nature and limitless hiking opportunities, it is a perfect destination that many people have on their bucket list. On the way to Lofoten, we have an overnight stay in Bodø and use the opportunity to climb inside Northern Norway's best climbing facility.
Lofoten consists of three main islands which are connected by tunnels and bridges. In the east is Austvågøy, where we visit Svolvær, Henningsvær and of course do activities in the area. In the middle of Lofoten's island chain lies Vestvågøy with Leknes as the largest town. On Vestvågøy it is a little less steep, and you can do activities such as horse riding along beautiful turquoise beaches, visit a Viking village and go on slightly less demanding summit hikes. Moskenes is the outermost of the three islands, and has the most dramatic scenery. Here are Reinebringen, Å, Bunes stranda, Kvalvika, and many other dramatic natural areas. If there is no storm, we can perhaps take beginner surfing courses at Unstad or Flakstad, which are two well-known surfing beaches.
In addition to this trip, we also have the option of island hopping on the Helgeland coast during the school year. Look forward to an exciting year in the North of Norway.
