The magic of Lofoten
guided by experts.

At TRAD, we believe that climbing is more than reaching the summit: it’s a way to connect with nature, overcome personal challenges, and discover breathtaking landscapes.


As local residents and passionate climbers, we live and breathe the mountains of Lofoten. We know every corner of this vertical paradise, from the classic routes to the lesser-explored walls waiting to be conquered.

We don’t just climb mountains; we live and breathe every inch of Lofoten. This place is more than a destination—it’s our home. Every day, we work to share its magic with you.

SMALL GROUPS, UNIQUE EXPERIENCES

At TRAD, we take the time to get to know you, understand your goals, and design an experience that reflects what you’re looking for—whether it’s learning to place your first cams, mastering advanced techniques, or climbing a dream route.

We work with small groups or on a one-to-one basis to ensure every experience is unique. You’ll get the attention and time you need to learn, explore, and fully enjoy the adventure.

No matter your level or goals, we tailor every course and route to provide a meaningful and unforgettable journey.

Commitment to the environment.

Climbing or hiking in Lofoten is more than an activity—it’s a journey to a place where mountains meet the ocean, where the silence of nature becomes your best companion, and where every day is different.

At TRAD, we understand that being part of this environment also means taking care of it. That’s why we follow responsible practices, minimize our environmental impact, and teach our clients to do the same. We want future generations to enjoy these lands as much as we do.

The best stories come from those who’ve climbed with us.

Albert Clavera, Spain

Javi has been by my side during my best mountain experiences. His adaptability and improvisation skills make every adventure unforgettable. The best companion at the summit!

Francisco Guillermo, Canada

I hired Javi because I wanted to practice belaying techniques. 

His clear guidance and encouraging attitude made the class both educational and enjoyable. I’d highly recommend this class to climbers of any skill level, whether you’re a beginner looking to build a strong foundation or someone more experienced wanting to refine your technique.

Miquel, Barcelona

The experience with Javi was both professional and personable.

He created an atmosphere that made me feel very relaxed and confident about the activity we were going to do. I’d particularly highlight the care with which he explained each movement we were going to make, as it helped me clearly understand every step needed to progress safely in climbing.
