The Lofoten Islands rise from the Norwegian Sea in a wall of granite, threaded together by bridges and narrow fjords. Red and ochre rorbuer cabins line the harbours of Svolvær, Reine and Hamnøy, where cod has been dried on wooden racks for centuries.
Summer brings near-constant daylight and the best conditions for ridge hikes, sea kayaking and long walks to beaches such as Kvalvika and Haukland.
