Sandy beaches beyond the Arctic Circle, red wooden cabins clinging onto the cliffs, fish drying in the Arctic winds with the fjords below as smooth as glass – that's the Lofoten Islands, a landscape that defies all expectations. <br> Kick off your road trip through northern Norway and cruise past long, winding fjords and cliffs towering into the sky. You get to set the pace, unless the view sets it for you. From the Lofoten Islands, the journey continues to Tromsø – Norway’s northernmost city, boasting colourful wooden houses and sweeping views of the water. <br> How much wilderness, how much tranquillity and how much of northern Norway are you up for? It's all in your hands.
God morgen! You're up and at 'em early again today. And it's no wonder – just thinking about your destination for the day makes you soon reach for the keys jingling happily in your pocket. Today's route takes you past snow-covered mountain peaks and shimmering dark blue fjords. When you fancy a little break, simply find a stretch of coastline to stop off at and, with a bit of luck, singing humpback whales and orcas hunting for fish will keep you company. Then continue on as the hilly landscape becomes more and more criss-crossed by water – a magical sight that you're bound to remember forever. Before you know it, you'll have reached your destination. Welcome to Narvik, a harbour town north of the Arctic Circle, spectacularly situated on a headland between two arms of the Ofotfjord. Settle in, take a deep breath and marvel at your surroundings. With mountains towering into the sky, glistening water and crisp air that's totally wild, this place is prime for a relaxing walk along the fjord or through the city, with the dramatic natural scenery always in view. In between, take a cosy break in a café and warm up with a coffee and a cinnamon bun as you soak up the Nordic mood.
'Excited' is an understatement, because today's a day when dreams come true! Impressive rock formations, picturesque fjords and the islanders' laid-back attitude towards life – you can hardly wait to experience it all up close. You quickly adjust your rear-view mirror, then hit the road. The Lofoten Islands await!
As you check out your surroundings, a hushed 'wow' escapes your lips; you've entered a whole new world! Red fishermen's cabins built on stilts right on the rocky shore of the deep blue sea, a rugged mountain landscape scattered with sparse vegetation – the locals have turned this seemingly inhospitable area into a dreamlike abode. And it's the ultimate explorer's playground! So, after a quick check-in at your next stay, you're off to discover it all. And if you get hungry along the way and want a true taste of Lofoten, just head to one of the many fish restaurants and order a local speciality, such as bacalao.
Get set to dive into the world of Lofoten! European route E10 connects the group of islands with one another, but the best way to truly immerse yourself in the archipelago is to simply park up and continue on foot. That way, there's no windscreen separating you from the outdoors and you can experience the unspoilt nature of the isles up close and personal. Once you're back on the road, it's off to Henningsvær, a small fishing village on the south side of Lofoten, which stretches across eight islands connected by bridges. Stroll between the little houses on stilts, and if you fancy a bite to eat, make yourself comfortable in one of the many cafés. Once you've refuelled, hit the road again and head for the Trollfjord. At just 1.5 miles long, it's certainly not the size of the Arctic fjord that makes it so special but rather its unmistakable beauty, which you get to enjoy live in action.
