Bike and Fishing Tour in the Fjords

Arrive in the Lofoten Islands with a flight to Evenes (or Svolvær), followed by a bus transfer to Skårungen in Kabelvåg. Upon arrival, your hosts Tilla and Christer, along with their team, will guide you on a short walk to explore the beautiful surroundings of Ørsvågvær and the stunning natural landscape of the area. After the walk, you will have time to settle into the cozy fishing cabins, where you can relax, take a dip in the sea, or enjoy a moment of tranquility in the hot tub. The day ends with a dinner together and an overnight stay at the facility.

After a hearty breakfast, the day begins with an informative briefing before heading out for the hike to Tjeldbergtinden, one of the most scenic peaks in the area. To reach the starting point, we’ll enjoy a pleasant bike ride along the path that leads to the trailhead. The moderate climb will take us to the summit, where we’ll be rewarded with spectacular views of Skrova, Kabelvåg, and Svolvær, making it the perfect spot for a refreshing break with a local Lofoten beer and dried fish. Upon returning to Skårungen, the afternoon will be free to explore the area at your leisure. You may choose to cycle to Kabelvåg’s town center, visit the Lofoten Aquarium or Lofoten Cathedral, or take a stroll around Svolvær, the largest town in the area. Both locations are easily reachable by bike from Skårungen. The day will conclude with a communal dinner, where you can share the highlights of the day before retreating for the night’s rest.

Today is dedicated to fishing by boat, an experience that will immerse you in the renowned fishing heritage of the Lofoten Islands. After a hearty breakfast, you’ll attend a brief safety briefing and prepare for your departure to sea, where you’ll get up close to nature in its wildest form. The weather will determine the route and the duration of the fishing trip, but the plan is to return to Skårungen by lunchtime. As you navigate the waters, you'll have the chance to enjoy the tranquility of the sea and the stunning surrounding landscapes. In the afternoon, you’ll have free time to explore the area or take part in an optional activity, such as a kayaking course (bookable at reception, weather permitting). The day ends with a delicious dinner for everyone at Skårungen, followed by an overnight stay.

After a hearty breakfast, we will head towards Laukvika for a full day hike to the majestic summit of Matmora, one of Lofoten’s gems. The trail to the top, 788 meters above sea level, is a steady but gradual climb that winds through breathtaking landscapes. If the weather is clear, you will have the chance to witness one of the most spectacular sunsets you’ve ever seen. The view stretches over the white beaches of Delp, the surrounding mountain peaks, and the turquoise sea that opens up to the horizon, offering a sight that will stay with you forever. During the day, we will stop for a picnic, taking in the stunning scenery before beginning our descent along the ridge, with a 360-degree panoramic view. The final stretch down to the road is quite steep, but at the end, transport will be waiting to take us back to Skårungen. We may also stop at the legendary Rolf's bar for a relaxing moment. Upon returning to Skårungen, the day ends with a group dinner, followed by an overnight stay.

After a hearty breakfast, you’ll hop on your bikes for an exciting ride towards Henningsvær, passing through spectacular landscapes. Once you arrive, you’ll park the bikes and continue on foot to hike up to the summit of Festvågtind. The trail is not particularly difficult, but requires a bit of scrambling to reach the top, where you’ll be rewarded with an extraordinary view of Henningsvær, Vestvågøy, and Stamsund – a perfect opportunity to take some photos and enjoy the scenery. After the hike, you’ll return to your bikes and ride the final stretch into Henningsvær, where you can take a stroll around the town center and enjoy a nice lunch. In the afternoon, you’ll cycle back to Skårungen at a relaxed pace, taking in the fresh air and beautiful surroundings. After some free time to unwind, we’ll all gather again for a delicious dinner and overnight stay.
