The ‘almost’ midnight sun, and stories by the campfire. Two very good reasons to explore the north coast of Lofoten.
Exploring the secret side of Lofoten, where the camper-vans can’t reach, and the hikers don’t roam. This is why we love to explore by kayak.
When you want to take your boyfriend kayaking, but he’s a climber…

When your boyfriend comes to visit Lofoten, and kayaking is just a way to get to the climbing.

Evoke Adventure has been my baby now for 9 years. It’s hard to believe sometimes that I run a business, but I found my passion and ran with it. Now, I organise, sell, and guide wilderness expeditions. Mostly in the Arctic.
My biggest value, is that I want these expeditions to be adventurous and challenging for those joining me, in exactly the same way that my own personal expeditions were when I fell in love with expedition kayaking. They should feel like you’re discovering as much about yourself, as the place you are exploring.

So the sun finally shone!
After what seemed like many days of rain. We were treated to a Lofoten special. Blue skies, warm sunshine and white sands. The water was so clear you could see everything living below.
We meandered along rocky coasting and around islands, enjoying the jellyfish and kelp Forrest’s. Spotted eagles patiently observing the waters from their view points, and camped amongst incredibly beautiful wild flowers.
Lofoten, you are wild and beautiful! If not a little challenging some times.

It’s been a challenging week so far, navigating currents, wind and a lot of rain. But, we’ve been having an amazing trip. Today we rode the tides and made it to Trollfjorden, we found a geo cash on a remote island (technical difficulty level 5) cooked dinner in a 5* wigwam, and watched a rainbow fill an entire valley.
Tomorrow we will be on the water 7.30am to catch the last of the North going stream, to make it through the narrows of Raftsundet.
Questions I always get asked: What should I wear?
The Arctic is super tricky to dress for. When the weather is good it can feel really warm. Shorts and T-shirt paddling. When it’s grey or damp it can feel really cold. So you have to carry everything you might need this can mean multiple paddling outfits. Here’s what I carry…
I carry as standard for sunny weather. A Patagonia sun-top and Dewerstone board shorts.
For dry but breezy days I wear a Palm Terek paddle jacket, light and comfy with either suntop or Tsangpo thermal underneath. With fuse pants.
For wet weather I wear my Palm Fuse adventure jacket as seen in the video above, with fuse pants. Merino thermal legins and Tsangpo thermal top and merino gillet. When I stop for lunch I quickly throw on a storm cag.
Kayaking is just as much fun in the rain as it is in the sun. You just gotta wear the right kit, and be prepared for the wet. Before stepping out of your tent, get that waterproof kit on! Keep your dry camp clothes for the evening, sometimes putting on cold damp kit takes a little mental strength, especially after slipping put of a warm cozy sleeping bag, but once it’s on and warmed up you’ll feel ready to rumble.

Just a small glimpse into my world.

Senja’s northern headland.
How are you supposed to sleep under the midnight sun?
Senja; where mountains fall into the sea.
