The first stop is Lensmannsgården in Namdalseid, just a half-hour drive from Steinkjer. The rooms are individually decorated and adorned with artworks from various artists, with shared bathrooms.

Day 2
Hildurs Urterarium

The next day, you will proceed to Brønnøysund. You can choose to travel "straight ahead" or take a slightly longer route to visit the coastal town of Rørvik and/or the island of Leka. Upon arrival at Hildurs Urterarium outside Brønnøysund, you will be served a 5-course dinner before spending the night here.
Day 3
Vega Havhotell
5-course dinner
The day after, you can visit downtown Brønnøysund or head out to Torghatten to witness the unique geological phenomenon up close.

While on Vega, you might want to visit the Vega World Heritage Centre and hike the popular Vegatrappa.
Day 4

The journey continues to Dønna, offering a variety of activities and attractions along the way.
