Discovering Lofoten islands in winter is an exceptional experience. We offer you a multi-activity holiday to enjoy the beauty of these islands. You’ll be amazed by the white sandy beaches, rugged mountains, typical fishing villages and the Northern Lights.
Itinerary
Day 1: Arrival in Lofoten – Svolvær
Arrival in Svolvær and transfer (not included) to your rorbu. The rorbu is the typical Lofoten accommodation (fisherman’s cabin). In the evening, you’ll go hunting for the Northern Lights and, if you’re lucky, you may just see one of the most beautiful phenomena in the world. Each apparition of the Northern Lights is unique and lights up the sky like a flickering curtain or swirling smoke. Their colours are a striking green, often with a touch of pink along the edges.
Accommodation in Svolvær.

Breakfast at the hotel. Discover the splendid Lofoten islands on a snowshoe hike.

Local tip
Stockfish (Tørrfisk) is one of Lofoten’s most iconic and historic foods, a centuries-old tradition that has shaped the region’s culture and economy. It is air-dried Arctic cod, preserved naturally by the cold, salty winds of Lofoten during winter. You can try stockfish in several delicious ways in local restaurants.
