Need to know how to get to Lofoten islands? You need to start your journey from Bod\u00f8, a city located in the north of Norway, just beyond the Arctic Circle. You will need to board the ships and go on the Norwegian Coastal Voyage, which is also called The Hurtigruten. This is not a cruise, and there is no entertainment provided. All you can do on the ship is soak up the beauty of nature. After a voyage of four hours, you will reach Stamsund, a small fishing village in the Lofoten Islands. Stamsund is located in Norland, the county in northern regions of Norway.<\/p>\n

While you are approaching Norland, you will get to see the Lofoten Wall \u2013 an extended range of mountains rising from the sea. This mountainous range is the largest island in the group of islands. Most Lofoten islands tours start from here.<\/p>\n

Since Iceland is also a pretty famous tourist destination, it is important to know how to get to Lofoten islands from Oslo. You can directly take a 3 hours flight from Oslo directly to the Lofoten islands airport. Alternatively, you can also take a coaster steamer, a train or even drive a car to Lofoten. However, if you are going by train, then you will have to take the ferry from Bod\u00f8.<\/p>\n
