EXPLORE LOFOTEN ON FOOT

Guided Hikes in Lofoten

The Experience

Leave the roadside viewpoints behind and experience Lofoten on foot with a local guide. We choose the hike according to the weather, trail conditions and the group – giving you the best experience the day has to offer.

THE BEST HIKE FOR THE DAY

No Fixed Trail - We Follow the Conditions

Mountains in Lofoten can feel completely different from one day to the next. Weather, wind, visibility and trail conditions all play a part in deciding where it makes sense to hike.

Rather than following the same route every day, your guide chooses from several hikes around Kabelvåg and Svolvær based on the conditions and the group.

Most of our hikes are easy to moderate, with a relaxed pace and plenty of time to stop, enjoy the views and experience the landscape along the way.

WHERE MIGHT WE GO?

Different Trails. Different Views.

Depending on the weather, season and group, your hike may take you to places such as Tjeldbergtinden, Glomtinden, Djevelporten, Ørntinden or Storknubben.

Some routes lead to open mountain viewpoints, others through quieter terrain or towards dramatic views of the coast. Your guide chooses the route that makes the most sense that day.

Reaching the viewpoint is not about turning around as quickly as possible. We make time for a proper break, with a drink and light snack from your guide while you enjoy the surroundings. Then, when everyone is ready, we begin the walk back down.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A fantastic experience with Hooked on Lofoten! We had five people on the boat, and the guide was absolutely great. Even though the fishing season is quite challenging right now, I managed to catch three large cod and several saithe. A really wonderful extra service at the end: the guide professionally gutted and cleaned the catch, so I was able to take the fish with me perfectly prepared to eat. Highly recommended!

The fishing trip was amazing, the guide was professional and answered every question. Everyone fished something and the experience was authentic. I would reccomand this experience to everyone even if they have never fished.

We did a 5 hour shore fishing + open fire cooking experience with Lasse as our guide. He was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and humorous and cooked us some fantastic fresh fish burgers for lunch. Would highly recommend this to anyone, whether beginner or more experienced! Thanks for the enjoyable day 😊 Linden, Kent & Yeen

Genuinely great experience. Went on the crab & dinner trip but got way more than what we expected. Erland is an incredibly knowledgeable guy with bags of humour too - ask about his fish butchery! We got a unique experience that we won’t forget in a hurry. Top class, would recommend to anyone in Lofoten (and although not included, the sauna and dip in the sea after was the cherry on the top!). Also shout out to the Nyvågar restaurant and hotel staff who were top notch as well!

Vi hadde en fantastisk fisketur med Erlend, som er en kjempe flink guide! Vi var heldig med været og alle sammen fikk flere fisker hver. Vi matet havørn med de minste fiskene, før vi dro inn til kai hvor Erlend viste oss hvordan man sløyer fisken. Vil i aller høysete grad anbefale denne turen!

This was a super day! Erland is very professional and a really nice guy! Talkative in a good and relaxed way and was both joking and telling anecdotes. After the fishing trip he instructed us how to take care of every part of the fish and cut up the fish for us. We also had the Hooked and cooked experience were Erland instructs the chef how he should serve every bit of the fish, and the chef at Nyvågar was incredible in making Erlands vision come to life. Amazing day and amazing dinner with our own fish! Worth every penny spent!

If you want a small group excursion with local guides, this is the place! I wish we’d found them sooner because this was by far our favorite experience in Lofoten. Erland was very genuine and knowledgeable, let us know what to expect, and was very kind and accommodating with our 4yo— even setting up a child’s fishing rod for him to use. Don’t skip the chef’s preparation, the food is incredible— and not just because you helped catch it!

We had the most amazing catch and cook experience with Lasse!!! Our day with Hooked on Lofoten was truly one of our best days in Norway. We cannot recommend this trip enough to people who want a great experience, whether you’re a fishing purist or a nature lover. Lasse was truly amazing, so knowledgeable and kind. He gave us an incredible day, and his cooking was top notch!

We had a couple of great days with Lasse and Eirik (separately) hiking & cycling. Both are clearly passionate about Lofoten, knowledgable and led our group confidently. They’re also nice, respectful guys who felt like an extension of our group and were able to adapt to our needs easily- making for an even more enjoyable trip. Would book again if I’m ever lucky enough to be back in Lofoten ;)
