Lofoten cabin holiday rentals details
Lofoten
Lofoten stretches like a wall of mountains to the southwest in the sea. Between the mainland and the "Lofoten Wall" lies the Vestfjord. Lofoten consists of mountains and peaks, wide open ocean, sheltered inlets, stretches of seashore and large virgin areas.
How to Get There:
Lofoten has airfields in Svolvær, at Leknes and at Røst. There are daily departures for Bodø. A helicopter service has been opened between Værøy Island and Bodø.
The Coastal Express calls at Stamsund and Svolvær, both on the way north and on the way south every day.
There are bus connections with Vesterålen and Fauske/Bodø, with further connections by train. Vesterålen and Bodø are served by express boats from Svolvær. There are also bus and express boat services to Narvik. From there it is possible to travel further by train to Sweden.
The ferry between Svolvær and Skutvik is the connection to the E6. When heading towards Vesterålen, people take the ferry from Fiskebøl to Melbu. A project has been started to provide a ferry-free connection to the mainland. There are ferries from Moskenes to Bodø and routes in the south to Værøy and Røst, which also have daily ferry service to Bodø.
Bridges and tunnels have replaced the ferries between the largest islands in Lofoten.
Attractions:
Lofoten grew because of the abundance of fish in the area ,and thus it is Norway’s principal sea fishing destination. The winter fisheries for cod are still crucial for settlement in Lofoten. Fishermen from all over North Norway take part in the Lofot Fisheries, which are based on the Norwegian Arctic cod´s spawning in the Vestfjord between January and April.
There are a large number of Whales in the Lofoten region, and the Whale Safaris are always extremely popular with visitors to the area.
There are also many cultural opportunities in Lofoten,with several museums,a glassblower,a Smith and Several art galleries.
Due to its spectacular location,with the wall of mountains rising up from the sea,Lofoten is a magnificent place just to enjoy and appreciate nature.Lofoten is a very poular hiking and cycling destination.There is also the opportunity to hire boats.
Bird Watching:
Lofoten is a magnet for international BirdWatchers. Lofoten has an abundant selection of birds. We meet birds from the forest, moors, highlands, sea and ocean, and many species which migrate past Lofoten every spring and autumn. The white-tailed eagle flourishes in Lofoten, and the area has one of the world´s largest stocks.
