Day by day
- Day 1: EMBARKATION AND WELCOME IN SVOLVÆRWe meet at 16:00 at the port of Svolvær for boarding. After check-in on board, we will present the ski touring plan in Lofoten, boat safety, and technical equipment. We set sail before sunset and navigate to a nearby anchorage, where we will have dinner on board (it is recommended to have had a snack beforehand) to be ready for the first day of skiing in the fjords.Accommodation: SailboatMeals: Dinner
- Day 2: SKI TOURING IN AUSTNESFJORDENEarly breakfast and transfer by zodiac to the shore of Austnesfjorden. Together with the guide, we choose the optimal route based on wind, snow conditions, and weather. Austnesfjorden offers peaks like Higravtinden, Geitgaljartind, or Rundfjellet, with ski touring descents ranging from 700 m to 1,200 m in elevation. Upon returning to the boat, we sail to the best starting point for the next day’s journey.Accommodation: SailboatMeals: breakfast + lunch + dinner
- Day 3: DISCOVERING NEW SUMMITSAfter breakfast, we adjust the route according to the day’s forecast. We can try another mountain in Austnesfjorden or sail towards Raftsundet. With good weather, we will climb Geitgaljartind, one of Lofoten’s most iconic summits, to enjoy a spectacular descent to the rocky section by the sea.Accommodation: SailboatMeals: breakfast + lunch + dinner
- Day 4: ADVENTURE IN TROLLFJORDENWe will set sail at dawn towards Trollfjorden, a remote fjord accessible only by boat. Before the sun warms the slopes, we choose a feasible hill and go ski touring after a good breakfast. After the descent, we can take a refreshing polar swim and light a bonfire on deck.Accommodation: SailboatMeals: breakfast + lunch + dinner
- Day 5: SKIING IN RAFTSUNDETWe dedicate the day to the mountains flanking Raftsundet, separating Lofoten from Vesterålen. Depending on the snowpack and wind, we choose long and technical descents or gentle routes through forests. If the sky clears at night, we will look for northern lights from the deck.Accommodation: SailboatMeals: breakfast + lunch + dinner
- Day 6: SECRET CORNER OF LOFOTENToday we move away from the most popular routes. The skipper and guide have prepared a secret destination: a remote peak with untouched snow and no tracks. We will enjoy a unique descent in the wild nature of Lofoten.Accommodation: SailboatMeals: breakfast + lunch + dinner
- Day 7: FINAL DAY AND RETURN TO SVOLVÆRWe will make a final short ascent at dawn to say goodbye to the mountains. We return to the boat and dock in Svolvær before 16:00, facilitating connections with the boat to Bodø or the buses linking to the airport.
