Discover Lofoten with us and Ebba Forsgren!
Ebba, a freelance skier who's always up for new adventures. In combination with that, she is also a writer, model and producer with a series of cool and inspiring projects under her belt. With that being said, one of the coolest people we know and we guarantee that you who join this trip will return home with loads of inspiration and more excited for new adventures than ever!
And then we have Lofoten, the pearl of Northern Norway, which has been awarded the world's most beautiful place several times. Imagine the fantastic views that stretch out over the Atlantic sea and all the mountain peaks of the island in combination with touring and skiing from peak to fjord. Magic!
Two authorized mountain guides are with us throughout the week looking for the best snow conditions for the day, and you get the chance to explore some of the most remote and beautiful places in Lofoten.
"Come with me to my favorite place on earth. Lofoten lives up to its hype, I promise! Touring and skiing with fjords as a backdrop is among the best things I know. Add long spring days with late sunsets and lots of good food, sauna in the evenings and dips in the sea. Hattvika Lodge, where I lived once before, will be our perfect home for the week. Come along, it will be fun :)"
