Cabin at the Svartisen glacier
Stay in Storhytta or Lillehytta at the foot of Svartisen-glacier on the Kystriksvei / Meløy side (Engabreen). Experience the magic after the last boat has passed and you are alone with the elements. Must be experienced!

Lillehytta consists of living room, kitchenette, bathroom and 1 bedroom with bunk bed, the bottom one is double. There are a total of 3 beds. You get the keys to the cabin at "Brestua", which is a service building and restaurant close by.
Boat over to SvartisenTo get to the cabins, you have to take the boat over Holandsfjorden. It runs regularly over the Holandsfjord from late May to early September. The boat departs from FV17 just south of (former) Meløy tourist office.
