Lofoten offers a wild and beautiful landscape. Let yourself be seduced by nature, the fjords, picturesque small villages, the breathtaking mountains that plunge straight into the sea and the whole spectacle that is on display. If you want the chance to experience the midnight sun and northern lights in the most fabulous spot, you have found the right place.
The farm is located on Gimsøy on the outer side of Lofoten by a white sandy beach and the sea on one side and the majestic mountain peaks on the other.
Here you are welcomed by Frode and his team of 10 - 15 employees. Frode has grown up on the farm that has been run by his family for several generations over several hundred years.
The farm is one of the oldest places in Lofoten with ancient remains from a long time ago. The site has boat piers, a god farm and graves from the Viking Age. The Viking Tore Hjort is believed to have had his chieftain's seat here over 1,000 years ago. He is mentioned in the Viking saga and was killed by King Olav Tryggvasson during the Christianization of Norway. You will hear stories about Tore Hjort and other Vikings during your stay here.
On the Trail Ride in the Footsteps of the Vikings, you get to ride among mountains with wonderful views, enjoy the white beaches and learn a little about the geology and animal life on the island and see relics from the Viking Age. One day you ride to a farm that runs a diverse farm with its own cheese production, herb garden and various animals. Back at the farm in Gimsøy, you are treated to tasty and local food rooted in the farm's history and food traditions.
