The trip

More Than a Trip — A Creative Escape

This expedition is more than just a road trip; it’s a creative retreat, a chance to disconnect from the noise of everyday life and immerse yourself in the raw, untamed beauty of Norway. Whether you’re a photographer, filmmaker, writer, or simply someone who craves adventure, this journey is designed to awaken your creativity and reconnect you with the wild.

Are you ready to hit the road with us?

Itinerary

In the morning of the 3rd of September we'll meet each in other in Tromso (details to follow) to pick up our motorhomes. It is required that everyone is together in this process, as a lot of important details about the cars will be explained. Therefore, we recommend the guests to arrive at least one day before in Tromso.

The drop-off will be at the morning of the 12th, in the same location. There, we'll part ways - but we recommend you extending your trip in this beautiful country :)

Senja – Norway’s Hidden Gem

Our first major stop is Senja, an island that remains one of Norway’s best-kept secrets. Often compared to Lofoten but with far fewer visitors, Senja offers a more rugged and untouched wilderness, where towering mountains plunge into the sea, and winding coastal roads reveal jaw-dropping scenery at every turn.

Here, we hike the iconic Hesten Trail, where a short but steep climb rewards us with a spectacular view of Segla, one of Norway’s most dramatic peaks. We also explore Ersfjord Beach, with its golden sands framed by sharp cliffs, and Tungeneset, a wooden walkway offering a perfect vantage point to admire the jagged peaks of Okshornan, known as the “Devil’s Teeth.” At night, we camp in the wild, surrounded by absolute silence—just us, the fjords, and the northern sky.

From Senja, we continue our journey south, letting the road and the weather dictate our pace. Traveling by motorhome gives us the freedom to stop at hidden viewpoints, follow spontaneous hiking trails, and experience the raw beauty of Norway in a way that traditional travel cannot offer.

Lofoten – A Photographer’s Dream

Our final destination is Lofoten, a place that feels almost otherworldly. With jagged peaks rising straight from the fjords, crystal-clear Arctic waters, and fishing villages that seem frozen in time, Lofoten is a paradise for landscape photographers, adventurers, and anyone seeking inspiration in the wild.

Here, we’ll hike some of the most breathtaking trails in Norway, such as Reinebringen, where a steep ascent leads to panoramic views over the turquoise waters of Reinefjorden. We’ll explore Hamnøy and Sakrisøy, two of the most picturesque fishing villages, and visit the Kvalvika Beach hike, a secluded bay framed by massive cliffs, accessible only by foot.

We embrace the rhythm of nature, choosing our campsites based on the best views, the best light, and the best conditions. Some nights, we park near remote fjords; other times, we might wake up by a hidden beach or a mountain pass covered in mist.

This expedition is not just about seeing Norway—it’s about living it. Get ready for ten days of adventure, creativity, and pure freedom on the open road.

Photographic equipment

We want to make it clear that there is no such thing as mandatory equipment - what you have is enough! That said, here is a list of equipment and accessories that, if you have them, will provide a better photographic experience. Remember that, on trips of this type, we can always share material and equipment so that we all have an incredible experience! Feel free to contact us beforehand to ask for help when packing/getting equipment.

Camera (DSLR/Mirrorless);
Lenses: A classic 24-70mm or equivalent will be the most used lens on the trip. Wide-angle lenses, like a 16-35 or similar will work perfectly for astrophotography and, if we're lucky, the northern lights. A great compliment would be a telephoto, like a 70-200 or 100-400, for some extra compression and potential wildlife.
Extra batteries;
Memory cards;
Cables and chargers;
Polarizer/ND filter;
HD or SSD for storage;
Laptop (preferably with Lightroom and Photoshop installed);
Comfortbale camera bag;

WHAT’S INCLUDED

This journey is designed to give you the ultimate freedom to explore Norway’s breathtaking coastline while ensuring a seamless and comfortable experience. Here’s what’s included in the expedition:

Premium Motorhomes – Each participant will travel and sleep in a fully-equipped motorhome, designed for comfort in the rugged Nordic landscapes. All of them will have a fully-equipped kitchen, a toilet, shower and full-size bed. We offer two configurations:

Shared Motorhome (3 people per vehicle) – You’ll share the space with two other travelers of the same gender, making it a social yet spacious experience. These can also be used for 4 people, if they're from the same group.
Private Motorhome for Two – Ideal for couples or 2 friends who prefer extra privacy. This option comes at an additional cost but allows you to have the entire motorhome for just the two of you.

Fuel Costs Covered – The expedition includes all fuel costs, so you can focus on the adventure without worrying about logistics.
Expert Guidance – This is more than just a road trip—it’s a curated expedition. Your guides are both professional photographers, cinematographers, and experienced expedition leaders. We will lead the way, sharing the best routes, secret spots, and creative insights along the journey.
A True Road-Life Experience – While food is not included, one of the most rewarding aspects of this adventure is embracing the simplicity of life on the road. We cook our meals together, sharing campfire dinners and rustic roadside breakfasts, just as true explorers do. With grocery stops along the way, you’ll have the freedom to prepare meals that suit your tastes and dietary preferences.
Unforgettable wild and paid camping spots – Every night, we camp in remote and stunning locations, surrounded by Norway’s untouched wilderness. Whether it’s by a fjord, on a secluded beach, or under towering peaks, each stop is a unique and breathtaking experience. Our original plan is to camp every 2 nights in an offical campsite - normally they have showers, kitchen and motorhome dumping and water stations. That will depend on our itinerary, weather conditions and travel distances.
