Sightseeing
A well known and visited mountain is Glomtinden, and it`s the mountain that you can see to the right in the mountain range from our cabin. Is`t a quite easy walk on a path starting right after the small bridge. 1 hour and you are 419m above the sea! Nice view of course.

In Svolvær you have many mountains that are worth a visit. Tjeldbergtinden is a easy hike also for kids. Fløya and Djevelporten is the mountaintop behind and over Svolværgeita ( the Svolværgoat). The first part of the path has sherpasteps. High season it can be quite crowded.

If you go to Vestvågøy and Moskenes there is a boattrip from Reine to Vindstad, and from Vindstad you go by foot to the Beautiful Bunesstranda. It`s a popular trip, and seats on the local boat are limited so we recommend to be there early just to be sure.

XXLofoten is situated in the harbour in Svolvær and they have daily trips in the summertime. We recommend to see Lofoten from the sea – it`s a total different view.

여행 팁
놓치면 후회하는 장소/활동
Avvoid Reinebringen
From Reine there is a mountaintrip to Reinebringen with built sherpasteps. You should concider to avoid this tour since it`s too crowded with people, and there has been some accidents with rocks falling down on the path. There are so many other hikes more spectacular and safe.

Some of the restaurants are quite popular an needs to be booked in advance. Particulary Lofoten Food Studio and Einvær. They are our defintive favorites with michelinstar quality. We love it!
