Your Lofoten
Hiking Itinerary

Lofoten

Your adventure begins as you arrive in Norway, where transport will be arranged to collect you from Evenes Airport. There are several morning flights from Oslo which is well connected with the rest of Europe, making your journey smooth and hassle-free. Please check with us first before confirming your flight Evenes as there is a cut off time for the transfer in the afternoon. We will start our journey to the mountain accommodation in Kabelvag in the early afternoon. If you arrive a little earlier you can enjoy the cafe with some of your fellow hikers. If you’re arriving a day early, we can suggest excellent accommodation options to ensure a relaxed start to your journey. 

For the duration of the trip, you’ll be based just outside Kabelvag, a small town with everything you need for a week of hiking. This means you won’t have to carry all your belongings from place to place, and after each day of hiking, you’ll return to the comfort of a warm shower and a cosy bed. Get ready for an unforgettable week exploring one of Europe’s most spectacular mountain landscapes.

Kvalvika Beach
📏 10 km ⏱️ 4–5 h ⬆️ ~750 m 💪 ●●●○○ — Moderate

This hike combines one of Lofoten’s most iconic mountain viewpoints with its most famous hidden beach. Starting from the trailhead near Fredvang, the path climbs gradually across moorland and small lakes before branching toward Kvalvika.

The descent leads down to Kvalvika Beach, a wild stretch of golden sand enclosed by sheer cliffs and turquoise waters. After exploring the shoreline, the route climbs back uphill toward the ridge of Ryten.

At the summit of Ryten (543 m), the panorama is unforgettable, with Kvalvika Beach far below, jagged peaks stretching into the sea, and endless ocean horizons. The return follows the descent route back to Fredvang, completing a hike that blends coastal drama with mountain scenery.

Justadtinden
📏 13 km ⏱️ 5–6 h ⬆️ ~950 m 💪 ●●●○○ — Moderate

Starting from the Hagskaret pass near Leknes, the trail climbs steadily toward Justadtinden, passing heathery slopes and rocky outcrops with early views across Vestfjorden. The summit of Justadtinden (738 m) provides a superb vantage point, with the open sea to the west and the mainland mountains to the east.

From here, instead of descending, the route continues along the ridge toward Bardheia. The path undulates across rocky crests and open moorland, with constant panoramas of the Lofoten wall stretching in both directions.

The return follows the same ridge back over Justadtinden before descending to Hagskaret, completing a longer and more varied mountain day. With its extended ridgeline walking and ever-changing views, this route is a classic Lofoten hike for those wanting more time on the heights.

 

Himmeltindan
📏 10 km ⏱️ 4–5 h ⬆️ ~900 m 💪 ●●●○○ — Moderate

Himmeltindan (964 m) is the highest peak on Vestvågøya and one of the great viewpoints of Lofoten. Starting from the parking area near Uttakleiv, the trail climbs steadily on grassy slopes before steepening into rockier ground as height is gained.

The route leads onto a broad ridge with ever-expanding views of the turquoise waters and sandy beaches around Haukland and Uttakleiv. The final push to the summit reveals a spectacular panorama, stretching across the whole Lofoten chain and out to the Norwegian mainland.

The descent retraces the same trail, giving fresh perspectives over the bays and peaks on the way down. With its combination of ocean vistas, dramatic ridges, and a true summit feel, Himmeltindan is one of the finest hikes in Lofoten.

Himmeltindan

After several days of hiking through Norway’s wild landscapes, today is a chance to slow down, explore the villages at your own pace, or take a day trip to one of the country’s other stunning destinations.

There are hundreds more hikes you can go for alone if you still have the energy or maybe you would like to spend the day in Bodo to experience a bit of town life, museums and quirky cafes. We have lots of ideas for you if you need some inspiration.

Tindstinden
📏 15 km ⏱️ 6–7 h ⬆️ ~500 m 💪 ●●●○○ — Moderate

This full-day circuit explores all sides of Skrova, combining its high ridge with quiet beaches and coastal paths. From the harbour, the route climbs steadily to Skrovafjellet, the island’s highest point, where views stretch across the Vestfjorden to the Lofoten Wall and the Norwegian mainland.

From the summit, the trail continues along ridges and down to the coast, where wartime ruins, old lighthouses, and hidden coves tell stories of the island’s past. Long sandy beaches and turquoise bays provide perfect places to pause, with seabirds and sweeping ocean horizons all around.

The final section follows quiet lanes and footpaths back to the village, completing a loop that captures the full variety of Skrova. With its mix of panoramic heights, cultural traces, and coastal beauty, this is one of the finest day hikes in Lofoten.

Skottinden
📏 12 km ⏱️ 6–7 h ⬆️ ~950 m 💪 ●●●●○ — Challenging

From Nappskaret pass the trail climbs steeply toward Skottinden, reaching the sharp summit ridge with early views over Vestfjorden and the Norwegian Sea. After enjoying the 671-metre peak, the route continues along a rugged ridge line toward Nonstinden.

The traverse involves rocky ground and some light scrambling, with constant panoramas of white-sand beaches, fjords, and the jagged spine of the Lofoten Wall. From Nonstinden the outlook takes in Leknes and the surrounding islands, offering a fresh perspective on central Lofoten.

The descent drops back through moorland and slopes to rejoin the valley path toward Nappskaret, completing a longer and more demanding day. With its airy ridges, varied terrain, and exceptional coastal views, this traverse is one of the most rewarding ridge hikes in the region.

Lofoten Bridge

After an incredible week exploring the wild beauty of Norway, it’s time to pack your bags and begin your journey onwards. Transport will be arranged to take you back to Evenes Airport. We can offer you a selection of flight times as the airport is only small.

If you’re extending your stay, there are plenty of incredible places to explore beyond the mountains. We’d be happy to share recommendations to help you make the most of your time.

As you leave Lofoten behind, you’ll take with you memories of turquoise lakes, dramatic peaks and unforgettable adventures in one of Europe’s most breathtaking landscapes. Until next time!

Please note: The itinerary may be changed due to weather or trail closures. Your safety is always our upmost priority. Your local guide will always keep you updated on what’s coming the next day and if there are any changes.

Handpicked Stays for Rest & Recovery​

YOUR ACCOMMOdATION

You’ll be staying at Skarungen just outside the town of Kabelvag, right on the beachfront. It’s surrounded by beauty and peacefulness. It’s a family run hotel, right by the sea. You will be staying in a twin room with private bathroom. Private rooms are available on request for a supplemetal cost. There are kitchen facilities and the option to buy a hearty breakfast in the hotel (259 Nok). There is also Wi-Fi, a beach, bar, restaurant, spa and laundry service (paid).

Lofoten felt like a dream you somehow stepped into. Quiet, raw, and impossibly beautiful. Each day brought a new kind of wonder: knife-edge ridgelines above turquoise bays, white-sand beaches hidden between cliffs, and summits that seemed to float above the sea. The light never stood still. It shifted constantly across mountains and water, turning even the stillest moments into something extraordinary. What I’ll remember most is the sense of space and stillness — the kind you only find where the wild begins. Our group fell into an easy rhythm, connected by shared effort and open horizons. Our guide had that rare gift of knowing when to lead and when to let the landscape speak for itself. We hiked through wind and sun and soft evening haze, always with the sea somewhere below us. In the evenings, we came back to cozy cabins with tired legs and full hearts. If you’re craving dramatic beauty and a deep sense of peace, Lofoten delivers in every way.
