Description

Located in northern Norway, the Lofoten archipelago is a sensational collection of gorgeous islands.

On this trip, which can last from 1 to 5 days, I would like to take you rock climbing to different spots throughout these incredible islands. Famous for their natural beauty, the Lofoten islands are home to several amazing peaks, bays, beaches and vast amounts of unspoiled natural landscape. The islands are also home to several mountains and ridges. And that is where our focus on this rock climbing trip will be.

With so many great, classic rock climbing routes to choose from, you can be assured that we will find the right one for you. Moreover, because of the variety, no matter your skill level, there is some great climbing just waiting for you.

An added advantage of this trip is that we will be climbing in small, private groups. With no more than 3 people with me on the rope, you can be sure that you will get all of my attention. Thus ensuring you have a fun, safe and memorable experience.

While this trip is open to people of all skill levels, all participants should be in good physical condition.

The scenery of the Lofoten islands is second to none. And climbing high up on its array of rock walls will give you a chance to admire a great deal of that incredible scenery. If that sounds like an adventure you would like to be a part of, just send me a request.

Do you enjoy back country skiing? Then join me on this trip in the Lofoten islands that can last from 5 to 7 days.

Accommodation

There are comfortable accommodation options in the Lofoten islands that I will be happy to recommend to you.

Meeting point

Our meeting point will be on the Lofoten Islands, but will specifically depend on where we decide to rock climb. To get to Lofoten, you can fly into Svolvær with SAS or fly to Evenes with Norwegian or SAS. The cheapest is to fly to Evenes but you'll have to drive for 2.5 hours to get to Lofoten. This is a beautiful drive so if you arrive in the daylight it's a plus.

I had a great time with Charlie, my climbing guide. He was very professional and taught me new tricks and techniques.
