Customer Reviews
Breathtaking week walking on the Islands….
A fantastic varied moderately challenging weeks walking with superb views from every top! Having always wanted to visit Lofoten this week didn’t disappoint…blessed with blue skies every day was a stunning adventure…beautiful quaint fisherman's villages to rugged mountain tops straight out of the sea. Each day was different and we had time for some cultural visits after the days walking.
Challenging walks, spectacular views!
A real level 4 trip, with steep sections on most days, some scrambling and rocky paths, but also some gentler parts along ridges and the coastline, with the rewarding views over majestic fjords, hidden beaches and colourful villages and the Lofoten archipelago in the background.
