The Rother hiking guide "Lofoten and Vesterland" presents the 60 most beautiful hikes north of the Arctic Circle.<br><br>The tours on offer in the Lofoten Islands range from family-friendly coastal walks between picturesque villages to challenging mountain climbs for those with strong nerves - including climbing passages and dizzying views from the slimmer ridges.

Numerous tips on places of interest along the way as well as spectacular photos make even the preparation of the (walking) trip to the Lofoten Islands in the far north a pleasure.
