RAFT SOUND & TROLL FJORD BY SEA KAYAK

Description

Raft Sound marks the eastern most boundary to the Lofoten Islands; runs North-South separating Norway’s largest island, Hinnøya from Austvåg Island, and the rest of the Lofoten Archipelago.

We will spend the day exploring the sound, playing in it’s currents and gliding down the infamous Troll Fjord. An angry troll is said to have chopped Trollfjord out of the Raftsund Alps!

From our launching spot on the banks of Raft Sound we will paddle beneath the jagged peaks of the the Raftsund Alps, stopping for a delicious Al Fresco picnic lunch deep in Trollfjord.

Why take this tour?

Jonathan’s philosophy: “Spending time outdoors having fun, doing physical exercise with good people, good food and tasty refreshments”. Every trip I design, and lead have this tenet!

Sea Kayaking in the Lofoten Islands

These impressively scenic islands form an archipelago, one hundred miles north of the Arctic Circle. It is a place of mystical landscapes illuminated by nearly continuous daylight. Glacially carved, sheer granite spires rise out of a sea made rich by the meeting of the warm Gulf Stream and the Arctic Ocean.

This surreal archipelago boasts islands fringed with green pastureland, dotted with picturesque fishing villages, each with its own unique character and dramatic mountain backdrop. This is truly a magical Arctic sea kayaking venue.

Spend the day paddling through indigo-blue fjords cut between jagged peaks, stopping at incredible white-sand beaches, or tucked away gems for an al fresco lunch.

Great kayaking, spectacular scenery and Norway’s seafaring culture make the Lofoten Islands one of the world’s most spectacular paddling destinations.
