Kval­vi­ka – 07th Novem­ber 2017

Tue

2017

Once again we cho­se the rou­te sou­thwards, to Flak­sta­døy and Mos­ken­esøy. The sce­ne­ry on the­se sou­thern islands is just too impres­si­ve. Even on such a rather grey and not com­ple­te­ly dry Novem­ber day.

The outer side of the Lofo­ten islands is con­stant­ly bea­ten by wea­ther, wind and waves of the north Atlan­tic, but it is famous for some beau­ti­full white sand beaches. The­re is one in Ram­ber direct­ly next to the road (and just on the other side of the same road, the­re is a very recom­mend­a­ble café, as we learn later the same day on the way back).

And the­re is ano­t­her, real­ly stun­ning beach, in a dra­ma­tic sce­nic set­ting, fur­ther south on Mos­ken­esøy, in Kval­vi­ka. The­re, you have to do some­thing befo­re you can enjoy the beach, it is qui­te a walk up the moun­tain and down on the other side. A lovely hike! And in Novem­ber, you can even have the fee­ling to be the only per­son in the world in this ama­zing place, for a short while, and watch the waves washing up the white sand.
