The Lofoten Islands and the nearby coastline of Bodø lie above the Arctic Circle (67–68°N).
This region boasts dramatic scenery, where jagged granite peaks rise straight from the sea to around 1’100 m. Exploring by sailboat opens up an endless range of untracked ski touring terrain, all set against the backdrop of deep blue fjords and the open ocean.
