Svolvaer is the capital of Lofoten and the gateway to this beautiful archipelago, serving as the entry and exit point (and yes, this city has an airport). Compared to other settlements in Lofoten, Svolvaer, with a population of over 4,700 inhabitants, is quite a large town. And while this town is not as picturesque as Lofoten’s gems – Reine and Henningsvær, there are plenty of things to do in Svolvaer. First of all, have a walk in the downtown and visit Svolvaer’s impressive art galleries. Then, you can have a relaxed walk to the Svinøya island and observe red rorbuer (fishermen’s cabins) that have been ideally preserved. And, of course, you can have a lot of fun on your visit to Svolvaer. For instance, don’t hesitate to drop by the Magic Ice Bar and appreciate the sophisticated ice sculptures while sipping a drink from the ice glass. Or set out on a guided tour to the local Lofotpils Brewery and try their outstanding craft beer. After all, try yourself at solving puzzles and riddles at the thematic Lofoten Escape Room. Or you can relax in the newest attraction in Svolvaer: the floating fjord sauna. Naturally, there are interesting activities that travelers prefer to try here, and taking the Trollfjord cruise from Svolvaer is an absolute must. And have you had a chance to visit the Lofoten archipelago? 😉 If so, which towns and villages have you visited?

One may call Norway "the land of the fjords" deservedly. This Scandinavian country has undoubtedly been blessed with fabulous nature, which is the reason why so many travelers come to Norway every year. There are over 1,700 fjords in this country, but which are the ones you shouldn't miss? Let's find out 😉 Nærøyfjord. Having inspired Disney's Frozen and being listed in the UNESCO World Heritage list, this is one of the most impressive attractions in Norway. The National Geographic Society ranked this fjord (together with Geirangerfjord) the world's number one natural heritage site. Besides, the famous "Norway in a nutshell" trip includes a cruise across this stunning fjord. Geirangerfjord. Another UNESCO-listed fjord in this list. Geiranger, nestled between towering mountains with snowy peaks, offers dramatic views and an unforgettable experience. And two farms, Knivsflå and Skageflå, that are located at an altitude of a few hundred meters will absolutely blow your mind! Lysefjord. It's not just about this "fjord of light" (it is the literal translation) that is worth seeing. You shouldn't miss out on hiking to the famous Preikestolen (the Pulpit Rock), which offers breathtaking views over this light-blue fjord. Hardangerfjord. This picturesque fjord is also nestled between the mountains. But one hike is definitely worth your attention: you can hike to Trolltunga and get a stunning photo on the cliff over this fjord. The hike isn't easy, but the rewards are very well worth it. 😊 And which fjords have you had a chance to see? 😊 Share your experience with us in the comments below! 😎 #norway #nature #norwaynature #naturelovers #naturetherapy #fjords #naturesbeauty #scandinavia #travelnow #traveltheworld #traveleurope #travelgram #traveltips #traveladvisor #traveladdict #traveldestination

There are plenty of reasons to travel to Lofoten. It is home to the world’s largest deep-water coral reef. It is an ancient Viking archaeological site. It is also the world’s northernmost populated region with northern lights. But on top of all this, Lofoten has a long-standing history of fishing. For hundreds of years, Lofoten has been the center of the Norwegian cod fishing industry. So, visiting Lofoten and not going on a fishing adventure can be likened to a sin. If you have it in plans to try fishing here, here are the best seasons for that: The traditional lofotfisket season runs from February to April, and skrei (cod) is the primary catch then. There is also a short salmon season that runs from June through September. #nordivatips #fish #fishing #norway #lofoten #lofotenislands #travel #traveldeeper #travelblogger #traveltheworld #traveldestination #travelnow #travelgram #facts #factsdaily #travelforfood #travelfood

Cross-country skiing is, perhaps, Norway’s favorite sport, and it is barely possible to imagine Norwegians without their favorite sports activity. There is a saying that “every Norwegian is born with skis on his/her feet.” Here, we will present you with the top 5 most popular locations for cross-country skiing in Norway.😉 Raudalen Alpinsenteret (Valdres, Oppland). All experts agree on the fact that this resort, located not far from Lillehammer, is deservedly one of the best spots for cross-country skiing in Norway. The total length of cross-country trails is 320 kilometers. Besides, you can also take one of the few trails that lead to the Jotunheimen National Park, which offers breathtaking views. Gaustablikk – Rjukan (Telemark). Even though the length of the trails does not exceed the modest 120 kilometers, trails across the high plateau are gorgeous for cross-country skiing. During your ski journey across the plateau, you will be able to relish the majestic views of Mount Gaustatoppen. Beitostølen Skisenter (Valdres, Oppland). Together with Raudalen, Beitostølen Skisenter appears to be among the best resorts for cross-country skiing, given the total length of trails exceeding 320 kilometers. The World Cup Arena for cross-country skiing is not only the best arena in Norway but also one of the best in Europe. Hovden (Setesdal, Aust-Agder). Setesdal, a valley in the Aust-Agder county, is home to one of the top trails for cross-country skiing. Considering that the trail starts right from the village and runs across the ski resort, it appears a complete paradise for skiers from all over the country. Kvitfjell (Lillehammer, Oppland). This resort is, perhaps, the best in the country and is suitable for all types of skiing. Yet, Kvitfjell offers wonderful opportunities for cross-country skiing, given the length of the trail amounting to the astonishing 600 kilometers! The trail starts at Kvitfjell, runs through Kvitfjell Vest, and ends at Gålå. #norway #norwaynature #norwaytravel #skiing #skiingisfun #skiingtrip #tromso #ski #traveleurope #travelnow #travelgram #traveladdict #traveladvice #traveltips #travelblogger

Tromsø becomes a Norwegian travel hotspot in winter and offers travelers to take part in many exciting activities. Reindeer sledding is a popular activity among travelers to Norway in winter, and there's no better place to try it than Tromsø. Herding reindeer has been an integral part of the life of the Sami people, who live in the northern regions of Norway. But since tourism in the region started to grow rapidly, the locals began opening their reindeer farms to travelers. Today, there are variations of reindeer sledding tours, which can be combined with other activities. We recommend you look for a reindeer sledding tour that includes an aurora borealis safari. If you are lucky enough, you will be able to enjoy the northern lights while being dragged in a sled by reindeer. 😊 And one can surely say that's an experience you will not forget. 😉 #reindeer #norwaynature #showshoeing #snowshoe #winter #winterwonterland #winteractivities #tromso #traveleurope #traveltheworld #travelnow #travelvibes #travelblogger #travelplanner #travelholic #scandinavia #tourism #tourist #traveltips #reindeerfarm

Winter is the best season for Northern Lights safari, an exciting and captivating activity you may undertake in northern Norway or the Lofoten Archipelago. But aurora borealis is rather unpredictable, and these tips will help you to hunt for the Northern Lights 😉 Tip #1: Use the Aurora Forecast tool to see in which areas aurora borealis will most probably appear. Tip #2: Keep in mind that the two periods are somewhat “ideal” for the Northern Lights safari: September-October and February-March. Tip #3: Dress warmly and appropriately when preparing to go for an aurora borealis hunt. Tip #4: It doesn’t have to be cold in order for you to see the Northern Lights. It must rather be dark. That’s why those two periods (September-October and February-March) are best for this type of safaris. Tip #5: The weather in the Arctic Circle is notoriously unpredictable. So, even though you may have a clear sky before the Northern Lights come out, that situation might change quickly and you won’t be able to see aurora borealis on that night. #northernlights #auroraborealis #travel #travelphoto #travelphotography #travelphotographer #adventure #adventuretime #adventuretravel #winter #winter2021 #traveltheworld #norway #arctic #lofoten #traveltips #traveladvice #travelgram #travelblogger

If you would like to embark on such an adrenaline-filled water adventure, Norway has many stunning destinations that are ideally fit for such trips. Let's find out here what are the top destinations in Norway for such tours. 😉 Tromsø.

The boat's skipper will narrate stories about this area, and you will get to see the local wildlife from perfect spots for that purpose. Lofoten. If you would like to explore Lofoten, the beautiful archipelago in western Norway, embarking on a RIB boat tour is a perfect way to do so.

While being this far in the north, you can also embark on an exciting RIB boat adventure along the sea ice edge and experience the local nature in the best possible way. Depending on the weather conditions, the boat may even approach glaciers and their fronts to look out for wandering polar bears. Geiranger. This is one of the most popular fjords in the country, and you get a perfect chance to explore it in a more exciting way than on an ordinary fjord cruise. Observe the famous "The Seven Sisters" and "The Bridal Veil" waterfalls from as close as possible. While enjoying the idyllic scenery of this area, the ship's guide will tell you about the people who used to live here from ancient times. Bergen. There is a 50-minute RIB boat tour that invites you to explore arguably the most beautiful city in Norway from the sea. As you travel further from the city, the city landscape shifts to islands, skerries, and stunning islets in the archipelago of Hjeltefjorden. This short trip will perfectly supplement any walking city tour in Bergen. 😊 #rib #norwaynature #showshoeing #snowshoe #winter #winterwonterland #winteractivities #tromso #traveleurope #traveltheworld #travelnow #travelvibes #travelblogger #travelplanner #travelholic #scandinavia #tourism #tourist #ribboat #traveltips
