One of the World's most beautiful and dramatic archipelagos, the Lofoten Islands lie off the north Norway coast inside the Arctic Circle. In the winter it becomes a magical place of snow capped mountains, frozen lakes and remote beaches, all tethered to the mainland by a single road, the E10, until  it reaches the village of A at its westernmost tip. This is where you'll find the magical Lake Agvatnet, the first of the images below.
