Lofoten Links air quality benefits from its exceptional Norwegian Arctic Gimsøy archipelago position in the Lofoten Islands, with powerful North Atlantic and Norwegian Sea westerlies providing outstanding maritime ventilation among the dramatic Lofoten peaks. Vehicle traffic contributes very modest local sources, while the extraordinary North Atlantic exposure and the surrounding Lofoten Wall mountain archipelago's channelling of maritime winds generally maintain excellent to good conditions throughout most of the year.
