Two flight delays, a broken suitcase wheel, a rental car pickup past operating hours, and an hour drive in pitch-black darkness later, we made it to our hotel on the Lofoten Islands! Thankfully, it was all worth it when we woke up the next morning to a stunning view of Festhelltinden. For two nights, we stayed at Eliassen Rorbuer in Hamnøy - the famous red fisherman’s cabins that appear in every top photo of Lofoten.

We started our day exploring a little village at the southernmost tip of the E10 highway, Å. Then, because we’re always looking for food, we then stopped at a café in Reine for coffee and cake before finding “the best fish burger in the world” at Anita’s Seafood (highly recommended by us).

Our last two stops of the day were Rambergstranda and Flakstad. Rambergstranda is known for its azure water and majestic peaks as well as the little red hut sitting up on the shore. As the sun began to set, we hurried to the village of Flakstad. There, we explored a little around the second oldest church in Lofoten, Flakstad Church, which was built around 1780.

Looking back, we cut a lot of stops and plans out of this day but it is so much more relaxing and enjoyable to travel at your own pace and not feel rushed. If we ever go back to this area in the summertime, you can bet that you will see us hitting up all of the hiking trails!
