Reaching Tjongsfjord Lodge takes a little planning. Because we sit in a remote and peaceful part of Northern Norway, it helps to plan your journey around the local ferry and flight connections.
Check-in at the lodge begins at 18:00, and check-out is by 10:00, so it is worth aligning your arrival and departure with the recommended travel windows from Bodø.
You should book your inbound flight to arrive in Bodø before 16:00 and your outbound flight to depart after 14:00.
