The Mt Golden Ears trail which takes you to the summit of Mt Golden Ears in Golden Ears Provincial Park and Panorama Ridge in Golden Ears (not to be confused with Panorama Ridge in Garibaldi Provincial Park) is one Vancouver hike that had been on my list for a while. Mt Golden Ears sits in…
The Lofoten Islands, an archipelago in Norway that lies within the Arctic Circle, is a beautiful place that’s famed for its hiking, climbing, kayaking, and outdoor adventures. Lofoten hiking is often steep, rocky, and muddy but it’s also incredibly beautiful. From the summit of many of the hikes in Lofoten, you’ll glance down onto turquoise…
If you’re looking for an easy hike in Lofoten the Haukland Beach hike to Uttakliev Beach is a great option for some Lofoten Islands hiking.

Hiking to the new DNT Nøkksætra cabin is a fun adventure and one of the best Lofoten hikes we did during our 6 weeks spent there. This DNT hut has been beautifully built and sits in the mountains near Svolvær, Lofoten. Our Airbnb during our trip to Lofoten in winter was very close to the…
The Eltofttuva hike near Leknes in Lofoten offers some of the best hiking in the Lofoten Islands. It’s a relatively easy hike (though not without some steeper sections) and offers incredible views of lakes, fjords and super impressive mountains. It’s also one of the quieter hikes in Lofoten and you’re unlikely to see the crowds…
The Heia and Festvagtind hike is the best Henningsvaer hike and one of the best hikes in the Lofoten Islands. As you climb steeply up to the summit of this hike, you’ll get some incredible views out over Henningsvaer; a pretty fishing village in Lofoten Norway. There’s also a lake and plenty of places to…
If you’re looking for Lofoten hikes that don’t get super busy, Delp and Matmora in Lofoten could be a good option for you. These two hikes are slightly off-the-beaten tracks that most people visit when they’re in Lofoten. Located on the northern tip of Austvågøya, Matmora is one of the most scenic mountains in eastern…
Eggum Beach and Unstad beach are two of the most beautiful beaches in Lofoten. With white sands, beautiful surroundings, and crystal clear water, these Lofoten beaches are a must-see during a trip to Lofoten.

Kleppstadheia in the Lofoten Islands was the first hike we did in Lofoten (and there ended up being many!). We hike this trail on a pretty cloudy and wet day but the views were still very impressive. We didn’t see a single soul on the trail apart from some ptarmigans nesting in the rocks on…
Just around the corner from our Airbnb during our Lofoten trip was Tjeldbergtind. Unlike a lot of other hikes in Lofoten, this is an easy hike in Lofoten (similar to Kleppstadheia) that doesn’t have too much exposure or steep stairs. We ended up doing the Tjeldbergtind hike a couple of times, once before the snow,…
