Tipps für Reisende

Was einpacken?

Bring warm clothes

Since Lofoten can change temperatures very quickly, even in the summer, I highly recommend packing some warm clothes.
Was einpacken?

Shoes for hiking

If you have plans on hiking in the mountains here, make sure you have comfortable and suitable shoes for the conditions. A lot of the paths can be muddy and slippery, so good quality shoes/hiking boots are a must.
Verkehrsmittel

Public transportation

For a great overview of our local public transportation, go to the "Turistinfo" in Svolvær. They are located right on the town square. They will supply you with all the information you need. They can also tell you about many more activities, places to eat and so on.

Leaving nature without footprints

We love that people want to explore the nature here in Lofoten. It is absolutely stunning, and it can be very nice to make a whole day out of going for a long hike :) Please keep in mind to leave the area as it was when you arrived. Take all garbage back with you and if you are out for many hours and have to use the bathroom, please be aqcuainted with the proper way to relieve yourself in nature. 1. find a spot far from any trail. 2. Dig a hole 3. Take any paper back with you to throw in a proper garbage disposal.
