p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · LOFOTEN : 5-6 days end of August / early September


We have 5-6 days (flights to be confirmed) end of August / early September OR we could make it later in (mid) September if the chances of Aurora sightings skyrocket !!

I'm with my wife for this trip (more scouting and for my wife this time but obviously I want to shoot too !) but she slipped 3 disks a couple of years ago and since then we have to be extremely careful, so easy hikes not over 5kms each way and nothing overly strenuous (climbs) are the order of the day.

We'll be arriving in Svolvaer from Bodo on the ferry.

Need advice on what/where you can recommend in the way of hotels / B&Bs etc. And maybe also a tour route for these 5 nights ? Should we base ourselves in one location and restrict movement since we only have a few days or should we move around from hotel to hotel / location to location ?

Reine, Sakrisoy, Kvalvika, Offersoykammen, Vestvagoy, Ryten, Unstad, Skottinden, Nonstinden, Ballstad, Mt Skottind, Vaeroy, Kyllingdalen etc. are on my list but I've no idea where they are in relation to each other (yet, I'm sure Google Maps will help out).

However I'D REALLY LIKE YOUR ADVICE ON WHICH TO INCLUDE AND WHICH TO LEAVE OUT AND WHAT I'VE MISSED FROM THE LIST ABOVE ! Sorry for the capitalisation !!

Many thanks !
Kevin
