Hello fellow paddlers, My name is Snorri and this is my first post to paddlewise, I have been lurking for some time now and enjoying the many topics discussed. I am planning a paddling trip to Norway and need information on good places to paddle, camp and all other info that might be of use, so if someone has paddled in Norway it would be great if they could share their experience.

We just got back from a great trip to the Lofoten islands (TR coming Real Soon Now). This is a great paddling destination: above the Arctic Circle, not many bugs, absolutely stunning scenery, not very cold water (Gulf Stream influences). There are not a lot of camping spots, as the mountains tend to drop straight from 1000m or so into the water, so a bit of planning is necessary. We were north of Svolvaer, camping in the back of the Trollfjord for a few days. We had only planned one night there, but got winded in. I believe there is an outfitter there named Jann. We went with Crossing Latitudes, a Swedish-American company; highly recommended.
