1 week Lofoten Island, Norway itinerary 🏔️✨

Exploring the Lofoten Islands under the Midnight Sun was a dream. From late May to mid-July, the sun never goes below the horizon and sunsets last all night long. Many days, we stayed up hiking until 3 or 4 AM, often squeezing in multiple hikes per day, to fully experience the golden glow.

We explored in a van with a rooftop tent and the flexibility was amazing since Lofoten is famous for its unpredictable weather. This is a hiking-heavy, active itinerary and most hikes here are short but very steep, so bring good shoes and plenty of layers!

Day 1: Fly into Evenes ✈️ → pick up van and groceries → drive toward Lofoten 🚐

Day 2: Coffee at Huset Kafé ☕ → hike Veggen (hard, very steep) + Mannen (moderately hard) → check into

Day 3: Explore Reine + Å → Reinefjord kayak tour with → hike Reinebringen (2000 stone stairs) 🥾

Day 4: eat at Anita’s seafood 🐟 → Lopes secondhand store → hike Offersøykammen + Urevatnet Loop → dinner at a local farm through experiences

Day 5: Kvalvika Beach + Ryten hike, relax at Ramberg beach, stay at

Day 6: Explore Henningsvær → hike Matmora

Day 7: Scenic drive back toward Evenes 🚐 → depart

There were some of the most beautiful landscapes we’ve ever seen and every day felt like a dream!
