Offersøykammen-Henningsvær

Not only do we like it here very well but also the animals do as we see a large shoal of fish and some jellyfish floating in the sea in front of our beautiful accommodation in the morning. Unfortunately, this is already our last day in the south of Lofoten. We check out and drive one last time to Hamnøy and Sakrisøy. Sakrisøy we go to Anita’s Seafood Restaurant and get a Kanelsnurr and a coffee to go. With heavy hearts we say goodbye to Sakrisøy and Hamnøy - our favourite places, go once again to the bridge at Hamnøy to the viewpoint and then leave the south of Lofoten. The weather is once again beautiful. In Ramberg we stop at Bunnpris and also shop once again in the Lofotenstore.

But we can also look forward to our next stop, we want to do the hike to Offersøykammen again. Last year we did this hike under cloudy skies and then realized at the top that we forgot the batteries for the drone. We now want to make up for this mistake. The trail is again very steep, but we arrived at the top of the 436-meter mountain in an hour and a half. And the view up there is just indescribable. 360 degrees completely around us are mountains, islands and the sea to see. There are hardly any other people up here. The sun shines on mountains lying around and the sea shimmers light blue around the islands. We choose this hike as our favorite hike in Lofoten.

For a while we are completely alone on the mountain, we take the opportunity and make some drone shots. The videos are just going to be epic. We picnic before hiking down and then drive to Henningsvær. On the way we buy groceries. In Henningsvær we arrive in time for sunset. The drive was beautiful and took us past bays and beaches. At the outermost point by the soccer field we stop and take drone shots again and enjoy the sunset over the sea.

In the evening we arrive at our Airbnb, which is very large and modern. We have dinner first (spinach and cheese tortellini, our traditional vacation dish) and set up our cameras again for northern lights. We drive to the nearby Rystad Camping, where we stayed last year. The northern lights are not long in coming. The camp is surrounded by mountains and sea with a beautiful beach, the perfect place to go Northern Lights hunting.

And to make this day perfect, the northern lights showed their best side. They were everywhere to be seen, dancing all over the sky and were so strong that there was a small northern lights explosion. Pictures can describe this spectacle a little better.

Another German tourist is also so excited and we photograph together for a while. Very tired we drive to our accommodation and know that unfortunately we will not get much sleep again.
