Rockfax Lofoten Climbs: Rock Climbing on Lofoten and Stetind in Arctic Norway is the third Rockfax guidebook to the beautiful Lofoten Islands. This edition builds on the comprehensive 2017 edition with many new crag photographs, some enhanced maps and a sprinkling of new routes. It also includes a whole new section around the Narvik area.
The Lofoten archipelago is a magical area - a pearl necklace of granite mountains, deep blue fjords, and tiny wooden fishing villages all squeezed between the mainland and the vastness of the Norwegian Sea, situated 250km north of the Arctic Circle. There is extensive high-quality rock climbing here on magnificent granite cliffs, the vast majority of this being traditionally protected. The Lofoten Climbs Rockfax is the ‘go-to’ volume - the essential companion for travelling climbers visiting this wonderful rock paradise.
