To me, the contrasts between peaks and plaines is one of the repeating elements strongly characterizing the landscapes of the Lofoten. There are others, obviously, e.g. beaches, fjords, skerries…

During today’s ride I explored the plaines west of Kabelvåg, very well overshadowed by the 943m high Vågakallen. This massive peak appears even very impressive from Skrova.

These plaines also include some pretty wet swamps after all the rain we had.

Fair winds…
