I would always recommand bringing a small backpack for daytrips, so definitly the two backpack variant. Here is my video on what I packed: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHXYnnhjl76ab5osi=9jTHlYDjS9dybgte . I hope you will have a great trip :)

Vielen Dank, wir waren Ende März / Anfang April dort :)

This video was recorded before I did the trip, so I had no clue how to pronoumce it correctly before actually visiting Abisko :)

Hey :) Das zählt noch zum ersten Tag solange du nicht am nächsten Morgen einen Anschlusszug irgendwohin nehmen willst (das wäre dann ein neuer Reisetag)

@@leoadvntrs2623 dankeschön für die Antwort:)

Hi, just ask as many questions as you want here in the comments :) The plan was mostly fixed as we wanted to book some accommodations early the get a good room and price. We also had some smaller adjustments along the way eg on the Lofoten we changed the Airbnb for the last day. I personally think that it's kinda hard to not plan ahead if you want to go to more remote areas (less touristic) due to the lack of accommodations, train connections and ressources. If you just travel from one big city to the next then it should be easy to be more flexible. My next Interrail trip is also completely fixed because I wanted to get the most out of a short timeframe.

Hi, na klar geht das :) Ab deinem ersten Reisetage ist dein Pass einen Monat lang gültig. Das heißt du kannst 7 Tage so viel Bahn fahren wie du willst und was du den restlichen Monat so unternimmst ist ganz dir überlassen.

Hi, so ganz genau weiß ich das nicht mehr aber es dürfte zwischen 1:15h und 1:30h gewesen sein :)

Hi, we both were wearing winter trekking shoes from Decathlon. I can't find the exact models anymore. But we were very happy with these shoes (comfortable, warm, good grip).

The train from Abisko to Narvik was 16€, the bus to Lofoten was 60€ and the express boat 75€. All numbers for 2 people, so all together 150€ for both of us.

Same

@@sndyrng Well

Abisko Guesthouse :)

Wie genau brauchst du die Route? Mit umsteigen meinst du?

@@leoadvntrs2623 ja und wie lange ihr genau überall wart

@Memories Ich plane noch 2 Videos dazu, ein Summary Video (in etwa wie das allererste) und ein How to plan an interrail trip und da sollte dann auch eine genauere Auflistung nochmal kommen. Wird aber sicherlich nicht mehr dieses Jahr passieren :)

Hi, i think it was about 2500€ total for 3 weeks and 2 persons :) this is only a rough guess

Hi :) I don't have an exact number but my rough guess is 2500€ in total (3 weeks of travelling for 2 persons). This would lead to 60€ per day per person. Overall Scandinavia is quiet expensive but I think you can definitly go a bit cheaper then 2500€ if you really want (cook yourself all the time, don't rent a car,...).

Thanks :) We did the snowmobile tour provided by our accommodation (no ad): www.abiskoguesthouse.com/tour/aurora-snowmobile-abisko/

No unfortunately not, but it isn't very expensive.

@@leoadvntrs2623 I am planning to fly into Tromsø and start my interrail from there. Is the area covered by my interrail pass or will I need to travel to Bodø and then start my interrail from there?

​@@anniek3629 Tromsø is not connected to the train network in Norway. You would have to take either bus or ferry to Bodo or Narvik and then you can start your Interrail journey.

Haha you are right, the snow storm actually never really happend. Just a lot of trouble for nothing :D

@@leoadvntrs2623 I will travel in Februaruy 2023 and I always hear about delate from this train, als to run only to Lulea and then to Kiruna another train. But I find Gälivare also interesting, there is one mounth Dundret. May be I do there a stop before Kiruna and Abisko. kzbin.info/www/bejne/g6ewg61_lLRje7s

Hi, thanks for your comment :) During summer you won't be able to see the northern lights due to the midnight sun. The best time to see them is September to March. If you are lucky you might see them in mid/end of August too.

Thank you so much 👍

Glad you enjoyed it :)

Thank you so much :)

Thank you :)

Sehr gern :) Ich antworte mal in Kurzform, da zur Planung noch ein Video kommt, wenn die Vlogs durch sind: Buchung meist über Booking.com oder Airbnb. Wann wir gebucht haben war unterschiedlich, Abisko zb haben wir sehr früh gebucht und die Interrail Tickets haben wir mal im Sale gekauft. Für die Fotos habe ich eine Sony a7ii. Bei den Polarlichtern muss man die Einstellungen immer anpassen, je nachdem wie hell sie sind. Grobe Werte sind 15sec, f/2.0, ISO 800 :)

Ja kommt noch :) das Nächste wird Bodø/Åndalsnes sein und danach kommt Oslo/Göteborg

@@leoadvntrs2623 cool! freu mich :) mein Freund und ich machen eine ähnliche Tour auch um Silvester rum :) Freu mich jetzt noch mehr als ich deinen Vlog gefunden hab:)

@@selinanachtmann2705 Super Sache, dann hoffe ich, dass ihr auch einen tollen Trip habt und schöne Erfahrungen sammelt :)

Hi, das war tatsächlich unterschiedlich von Land und Land. Manchmal kann man garnicht reservieren, manchmal nur ganz kurzfristig per Anruf (Norwegen) und manchmal geht es ganz einfach online. Z.b. haben wir die Züge Malmö-Stockholm-Abisko ca. 1 Woche vorher gebucht und Göteburg-Berlin am Abend vorher. Wir wollten uns da etwas Freiraum lassen und haben trotzdem immer einen Platz bekommen :)

Hey thanks for your comment, Faroer sounds like a really nice trip :) The small backpack is from Sandqvist. It's a nice backpack but not made for outdoor adventures. I just didn't want to buy another one. For the next trip I would probably go for a backpack with a small photography gear compartment and a separate, very lightweight dayback you can fold very small.

@@leoadvntrs2623 I'd recommend the Nomatic backpack. It expands, it has different compartments, really useful. Massive pain when I had too much room on a hike and my wife found out and packed more. The Sandqvist backpack looks perfect for my biking commute to work in DC.

This was at the end of march, as you can see from the dates in the video :)

This sounds like a great roadtrip but be sure to have a lot of time for this trip. I think you shouldn't be afraid and it's defintily possible. If you go in winter you have to have good winter tires and bring snow chains. Don't expect to drive a lot of kilometers in winter on a daily basis because the conditions can limit your speed and sight. In summer this shouldn't be a problem. Have a look at www.placesandnotes.com/?p=16095 . This is probably what you are looking for :)

This video was filmed before we left for the trip. Please have a look at my vlogs for photos and video footage :)

Ich habe fast ausschließlich mein Landschaftsobjektiv (Samyang 20mm 1.4) benutzt und nur selten mein Tele. Mehr dazu im nächsten Vlog :)

@@leoadvntrs2623 alles klar, Danke fürs Antworten :)

Thank you! I don't have time to edit videos these days but you can look forward to the end of July for more.

Einen genauen Überblick dazu habe ich aktuell nicht. Skandinavien ist auch ziemlich teuer. Schätzungsweise ca. 2500€ für zwei Personen (macht etwa 60€ pro Tag/Person). Am kann definitiv etwas günstiger kommen, wenn man mehr selber kocht beispielsweise. Ich kann dazu auch noch irgendwann ein Video machen :)

@@leoadvntrs2623 ich danke dir ☺️

Hi! First of all seat reservations are often required in Norway. The only time we didn't need one was from Oslo to Gotenborg (I think because the train was from the swedish train service). To get a seat reservation with an interrail pass you just need to call the customer hotline of the train service. Simply say that you are travelling with interrail and what train connection you want to take. They will ask you for your credit card number to pay for the seat and after thats done you get an e-mail with the tickets. Hope that helps you :)

@@leoadvntrs2623 Thanks a lot!
