The Great Northern Adventure — Oslo to Lofoten
Oslo · Trondheim · Arctic Circle · Bodø · Lofoten
Two weeks and roughly 1,400 km north — the big one. Trondheim's cathedral, the Arctic Circle crossing on the Saltfjellet, and then the slow, spectacular island-hop out to the tip of Lofoten, where sharp peaks drop straight into turquoise bays.
HIGHLIGHTS ALONG THE WAY
- Trondheim — Nidaros Cathedral and the colourful Bryggen wharves
- Crossing the Arctic Circle at the Saltfjellet centre
- Lofoten fishing villages: Henningsvær, Reine and Å
- White-sand Arctic beaches at Haukland and Kvalvika
WHERE TO CAMP
- Trondheim area campsites for the halfway break
- Moskenes / Reine area at the far end of Lofoten
- Kvalvika / Haukland beach-side spots (check Park4night for legal parking)
