Lofoten, spring

Like all seasons, the weather determines when spring begins or ends in Lofoten. On this page an impression from mid-April to the end of May. In mid-April, the ice on rivers and lakes melts, the snow disappears and brown vegetation emerges, which soon reveals green sprouts. But a snow shower can easily fall in May. In the second half the midnight sun starts, which then stays very low above the horizon for hours. Breeding birds return.
