What to do and see in Nordland, Northern Norway: The Best Food & Drink

December 30, 2021 Veronika Gaddis

Typified by steep mountains and the flat lowlands where they meet the Norwegian Sea, Nordland is known for its stunning scenery. The Lofoten Islands off the mainland are considered among the world's best for travelers and include unique attractions like the Lofotr Viking Museum at Borg. Saltstraumen near Bodo has the world's strongest tidal current. Further south, Vega has been designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its age-old lifestyle of fishing and eider duck down harvesting.

Lofoten Gaardsysteri

Reviewed By woodywood38 - Edinburgh, United Kingdom

As a French, seeing all those goats and cheese roaming free in Lofoten I was curious to find some locally made cheese after trying this famous brown sugary cheese. When arriving at the farm, it already felt very authentic and the cheese... just delicious. We tried the mixed cow and goat milk and pure goat milk. This place is a must go if you are passing by.
