Lofoten Islands travel

The name alone evokes a sense of escape and distant horizons: Lofoten. With its landscape carved by fjords, gentle and peaceful meadows where flocks of sheep have made their home, and fishing villages nestled in sheltered coves, the archipelago, set just outside the Arctic Circle and separated from the mainland by the Vestfjord, lives up to its promise. A trip to the Lofoten Islands is a must for anyone visiting Northern Norway.
