Once the heart of Viking seafaring and trading, the Lofoten Islands carry echoes of a storied past.

The Viking Age comes alive here, with archaeological finds and the carefully preserved Lofotr Viking Museum offering glimpses into how these ancient mariners lived and thrived in harmony with the sea. 

But it’s the island’s dramatic natural beauty that truly catches the attention of travellers. From the midnight sun in summer to the long twilight of autumn, Lofoten’s unique position above the Arctic Circle creates extraordinary light phenomena that add an almost magical quality to the journey. 

Lofoten’s roads are a cyclist’s dream, offering a mix of quiet coastal routes, gentle rolling hills, and exhilarating descents. Well-paved roads wind past pristine beaches, through quaint fishing villages, and along fjords that seem to stretch endlessly toward the horizon. 

With minimal traffic on many stretches, cycling here feels peaceful and immersive, allowing you to fully absorb the dramatic scenery that unfolds around every bend. 

We are committed to providing you a seamless and memorable experience. With booking comfortable accommodations, equipping you with a detailed digital guidebook and GPS routes, we make it easy to focus on the beauty of the islands!

Addressing specific dietary needs can vary in Norway. Vegetarian options are often available, but sourcing vegan meals may be more challenging in rural regions or smaller towns. It’s important to note that lunch stops usually occur at traditional restaurants, where accommodating special dietary requirements beyond their regular menu might be limited. Please consider this when planning your cycling tour in Norway.

The ideal cycling season in Norway spans from mid-May to mid-September. In higher elevations, such as mountainous areas, it’s advisable to schedule your cycling adventures from mid-June to August.

In Norway, tours can proceed in light rain with appropriate clothing. Summers may bring afternoon showers, so beginning your tours early is recommended. If adverse weather conditions are expected, we will make efforts to adjust the tour schedule accordingly.

On cycling trips, luggage transfer allows you to ride without carrying heavy bags. Each morning, you leave your luggage at the designated spot—often the hotel reception—and it’s transported to your next overnight stop. Your bags are usually waiting for you when you arrive. Weight limits and pickup times can vary slightly depending on the service provider.
