Photography trip untouched Senja 

Senja, where to start? It is called: more beautiful than the Lofoten! That is not an unjust statement, because Senja is truly stunning. It is nowhere near as discovered as the Lofoten. This means that you often have the untouched landscape to yourself, which is a unique experience. Of course, this journey is also dominated by the Northern Lights, which we continuously follow. Packed with highlights that you will remember for a long time!

What will you photograph during this 8 day photo trip?

  • The Northern Lights, we continuously focus on this, to offer you this opportunity.
  • The mighty Devil's Jaw, where we come back several times
  • Excursion to the island of Sommaroy
  • The winter wonder world… hidden gems where everything is white!
  • Bergsbotn with its beautiful view
  • Anderdalen National Park

During the trip you can enjoy all the beauty Senja has to offer, there’s no time pressure. There’s enough time for workshops like landscape, nature, macro and astro photography. A photography trip in Senja is an unforgettable experience, which you can enjoy again long after you’re back, with your very own photos.

Travelmarks-photography.. your experience! Untill clicks!

There is a carefully curated photo tour along the most beautiful places that untouched Senja has to offer. Unbelievably beautiful winter landscapes alternate with rugged coastlines and rock formations. We travel in late winter which is an excellent time to spot the Northern Lights. A richly filled memory card guaranteed. Let yourself be surprised!

Day 1
Arrival in Bardufoss. After arrival we set course for our accommodation. On the way we drive through the Anderdalen National Park, where we of course make a photo stop. The second photo stop is in Hamn I Senja, where we photograph the characteristic houses.

Day 2 until day 5
From our accommodation we have all the beautiful places within reach. That's ideal, so we don't have to make long journeys and have maximum photography fun!

Locations that we definitely visit are: Devil's Jaw, Bergsbotn, Skaland and Senjahopen. In particular, we will visit Devil's Jaw several times. This is the place where you can shoot for hours! A true pearl where you will not get bored. Here you will learn what landscape photography is all about and how to apply compositions in your photos.

Day 6
Today we leave our familiar surroundings and make an excursion to the island of Sommaroy. Here we photograph the typical Norwegian houses and above all we enjoy the environment. The atmosphere that prevails here exudes something tropical, while it is really wintery.

On the way we pass through an unreal beautiful area. Here everything is, but really everything is white. It's like watching in black and white, a fantastic experience. This place pays off ideally for minimalist photos.

Day 7
We still have a full day at our disposal in overwhelming Senja. We have no time pressure during this trip and we decide together which locations we will visit. It is also the last evening where we review the journey over a Norwegian dinner.

Day 8
With great reluctance, the last day has arrived. Many highlights have been seen. What a journey, what an experience, what an photography tour! Today is all about the return journey. Of course we use the time we have to take the last pictures that will end this magical photo trip!

Depending on the flight schedule and wishes, we can also organize a real husky tour for the enthusiast on this day.
