Itinerary
Hei! Welcome to Norway. Your adventure begins with a welcome meeting tonight at 6 pm in Svolvaer. If you arrive early, maybe explore the area’s wartime history at the Lofoten War Memorial Museum, join a brewery tour to sample local flavours or see Lofoten from the water on a kayaking adventure. After the meeting, maybe get to know your fellow travellers over dinner at a local restaurant.
Lace up your hiking boots and set off on your first hike to Floya and Djevelporten. Climb the Sherpa staircase known as Djeveltrappa (The Devil’s Staircase), pass by Djevelporten (The Devil’s Gate) and see the iconic Svolvaergeita (Svolvaer Goat). At the top, take in the sweeping views of eastern Lofoten from Floya peak. After your hike, you'll have some free time to find a local restaurant for dinner, before taking an early evening ferry to Stamsund. (B)
Today you’ll hike Steinetinden and Stamsundheia loop. The trail will take you from peak to peak along a hilly ridge. As you walk, take in the panoramic views over the Vestforg and nearby Vestvagoya Island. After your hike tonight, maybe find a local restaurant for dinner – your local leader will have the best recommendations! (B)
This morning, take the bus to Reine, a small fishing village on Moskenesoya Island, where you’ll set off on the Reinebringen trail. Walk along the path, built with stone steps by Sherpas from Nepal, to the summit. From the top, take in the panoramic views of Reine, Sakrisoy, Hamnoy and the sparkling waters of Reinefjord and Kjerkfjord. After today’s hike, the evening is free for you to explore Reine at your own pace. (B)
After breakfast, take the ferry to Vindstad. On today’s hike, you’ll explore one of the most beautiful beaches in Norway – Bunesstranda. As you walk, take in views of the fine white sand beach and turquoise waters framed by the Arctic wilderness, and pass through the coastal village of Vinstad with its old houses and beach huts. Later, you’ll return to Reine by ferry. (B)
This morning, travel back to Svolvaer, stopping along the way at Lofoten Gardsysteri. This free-range goat cheese farm is run organically and biodynamically to make the best use of local resources and achieve the most authentic local flavours. Set off on a tasting tour where you’ll learn how cheese is made from fresh milk and see the dairy goats. Then, continue to Svolvaer, where the rest of the day is free to explore at your own pace. Tonight, maybe head out for dinner with your group and share your favourite memories of the trip. (B)
As there are no further activities planned today, your trip comes to an end after breakfast. If you’re not ready to say goodbye to Lofoten, why not stay a few extra days – just speak with your booking agent ahead of time. (B)
