The Lofoten Archipelago is a collection of islands off the western coast of Norway. Its landscape is characterized by the dramatically jagged peaks that rise up from the islands, including the Svolværgeita pinnacle, which creates a breathtaking view that can be seen for miles. It's a great spot to view the aurora borealis, and there are several Northern Lights tours that operate on the islands. There are also several Viking-related museums on the Lofoten Archipelago, like the Lofotr Viking Museum, where guests can see a reconstructed Viking longhouse and learn about their culture and the history in the region.
