View of Laukvik

Highlight • Viewpoint

The early stages on the ascent to the Matmora ridge reveal some lovely views across towards Laukvik and beyond towards Festvågtinden and Gimsøya. This section is either the start or finish of the Lofoten Long Crossing long-distance trail, a stunning traverse of the archipelago.

1.52 km

View from Delfsheia

Highlight • Viewpoint

This wide plateau is in stark contrast to the airy Matmora ridge to the south. However, the views are similarly superb, especially across Grunnførfjorden and the peaks that form a crown above Storvatnet. From here, its a short hike to Matmora, which is a sensational ridge to traverse.

Matmora Summit

Highlight • Summit

Matmora is the 788-metre (2,585 ft) summit of what is a stunning ridge traverse, with some photogenic pinnacles that lean across the void. Narrow, airy and spectacular, it's a real highlight of the Lofoten Long Crossing long-distance trail. Expect superb views across the archipelago's jagged peaks and down to Grunnførfjorden.

Sandsletta Camping

Highlight • Rest Area

Sandsletta has been welcoming campers for over 60 years and is a great base for adventures on Austvågøya. There's space for tent pitches, as well as 22 cabins. The restaurant serves great local food, while there's a convenience store for resupply too.
