From Kabel­våg to Troll­fjord – 21st May, 2017

Not having the nort­hern lights at this time of year does have advan­ta­ges – you can get some hours of sleep befo­re star­ting to hike from Kabel­våg to Svol­vær. It seems to have been a long win­ter here in Lofo­ten, just as in Spits­ber­gen fur­ther north. The­re is still a lot of snow in the ter­rain, it is wet, and lakes are still lar­ge­ly fro­zen.

The white beaches on Skro­va bring a strong con­trast to that, having a tro­pi­cal appearan­ce. And sai­ling nor­thwards in Ves­t­fjord gives us later the fee­ling of being some­whe­re in the Car­ri­be­an. A good life under a wide, open sky!

In Troll­fjord, the sce­ne­ry does, howe­ver, not lea­ve any doubt that we are in north Nor­way. Also here, the­re is still a lot of snow.
