In the important winter fishing, the port of Henningsv\u00e6r has been the place to land fish, gossip about fish prices, and feel the pulse of this yearly coastal bonanza. The richest and most financially independent kids in the country have saved up for bikes and computer gadgets by working way too many hours cutting cods tongues. Lately, fish processing has become more antiseptic, isolated from the rest of society, and invisible to the eye. Henningsv\u00e6r has compensated slightly by letting in artists, craftsmen, and tourists, but without losing its character and personality. <\/p>\n\n\n\t<div class=\"wp-block-vnn-gallery gallery-count-3\">\n\t\t<ul><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/DJI_0365.jpg\" data-size=\"1422x800\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">01<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/DJI_0365.jpg\" alt=\"Henningsvaer is a lively town during the winter \u00a9 Ismaele Tortella\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/DJI_0365.jpg\" data-caption=\"Henningsvaer is a lively town during the winter \u00a9 Ismaele Tortella\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/DJI_0665.jpg\" data-size=\"555x800\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">02<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/DJI_0665.jpg\" alt=\"The soccer field at Henningsv\u00e6r in Lofoten \u00a9 Ismaele Tortella\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/DJI_0665.jpg\" data-caption=\"The soccer field at Henningsv\u00e6r in Lofoten \u00a9 Ismaele Tortella\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/DJI_0353.jpg\" data-size=\"1422x800\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">03<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/DJI_0353-768x432.jpg\" alt=\"Henninsv\u00e6r from the air \u00a9 Ismaele Tortella\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/DJI_0353.jpg\" data-caption=\"Henninsv\u00e6r from the air \u00a9 Ismaele Tortella\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><\/ul><div class=\"vnn-gallery-figcaptions\"><figcaption>01: Henningsvaer is a lively town during the winter \u00a9 Ismaele Tortella<\/figcaption><figcaption>02: The soccer field at Henningsv\u00e6r in Lofoten \u00a9 Ismaele Tortella<\/figcaption><figcaption>03: Henninsv\u00e6r from the air \u00a9 Ismaele Tortella<\/figcaption><\/div>\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-henningsv-r-is-your-perfect-fishing-village\">Henningsv\u00e6r is your perfect fishing village<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In the Northern Norwegian dialect, we have this work \u201cv\u00e6r\u201d, or \u201cfiskev\u00e6r\u201d.

A typical fishing village has a sheltered port, one or many fish factories, and a dense maze of houses around. &nbsp;No place has more of a \u201cfiskev\u00e6r\u201d feel than Henningsv\u00e6r, built on several islands, surrounding the port. Facing the port are old warehouses and fish factories, from the time when great amounts of fish were landed here. Some of them have been converted into hotels, galleries, and restaurants. Tourism creeps in, providing jobs in the summer season when fishing is on a low.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t<div class=\" alignwide wp-block-vnn-booking\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"vnn-booking__image\">\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/logolofoten1_1.png\" alt=\"\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"vnn-booking__content\">\n\t\t\t\t\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-don-t-plan-your-vacation-away\">Don&#8217;t plan your vacation away<\/h2>\n\n<p>Save time and let the local experts at Visit Lofoten help you in your planning<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button link-to-booking-provider-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/lofoten.info\/Visitlofoten\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Go to their page<\/a><\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed dekode-gtm-iframe-preview is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Lofoten Island | 1000 years exporting FISH | Northern Norway\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" data-cookieconsent=\"marketing\" data-cookieblock-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ITzKnaOi9dk?feature=oembed\"  allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups\"><\/iframe>\n\t\t<div class=\"cookieconsent-optout-marketing dekode-gtm-cookie-consent-video-placeholder\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"dekode-gtm-cookie-consent is-block-core-embed is-provider-youtube\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/ITzKnaOi9dk\/hqdefault.jpg\" alt=\"youtube\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"overlay\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"cookie-info\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"iframe-preview-text\">This content (film) is loaded from YouTube (third-party website), you will need to accept statistics and marketing cookies to be able to watch it.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a title=\"Renew consent\" class=\"dekode-gtm-cookiebot-renew\" href=\"#\">Renew consent<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Henningsv\u00e6r is crucial for the Lofoten Fishery \u00a9 Ismaele Tortella<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-even-the-way-there-is-breathtaking\">Even the way there is breathtaking<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>These days, you can drive or take the bus all the way, driving along rocky coastlines with big boulders and almost vertical cliffsides.

There is also a water pipeline across, so that people don\u2019t have to row across the sound to \u201cVass-Lovise\u201d (Water Louise) who made her living from selling water to the islanders. If you find a little lay-by, jump out of the car to capture the arch of the bridge with your camera.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<div class=\"wp-block-vnn-gallery gallery-count-2\">\n\t\t<ul><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/000679_Terje-Rakke-Nordic-Life_www.nordnorge.com_.jpg\" data-size=\"1214x800\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">01<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/000679_Terje-Rakke-Nordic-Life_www.nordnorge.com_.jpg\" alt=\"Mirroring the Lofoten light \u00a9 Terje Rakke\/Nordic Life\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/000679_Terje-Rakke-Nordic-Life_www.nordnorge.com_.jpg\" data-caption=\"Mirroring the Lofoten light \u00a9 Terje Rakke\/Nordic Life\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/000446_Ernst-Furuhatt_www.nordnorge.com_.jpg\" data-size=\"1090x800\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">02<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/000446_Ernst-Furuhatt_www.nordnorge.com_-768x564.jpg\" alt=\"Candles in the making \u00a9 Ernst Furuhatt\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/000446_Ernst-Furuhatt_www.nordnorge.com_.jpg\" data-caption=\"Candles in the making \u00a9 Ernst Furuhatt\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><\/ul><div class=\"vnn-gallery-figcaptions\"><figcaption>01: Mirroring the Lofoten light \u00a9 Terje Rakke\/Nordic Life<\/figcaption><figcaption>02: Candles in the making \u00a9 Ernst Furuhatt<\/figcaption><\/div>\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-go-for-a-walk-around-henningsv-r\">Go for a walk around Henningsv\u00e6r<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Well arrived, you start the walk on the western side of the port. Henningsv\u00e6r is a mix of old and new, stylish and charmingly homegrown. &nbsp;There is hardly a straight line anywhere, and hardly two houses next to each other that match in colours, style or size. When you walk around, keep in mind that people actually live here. We sometimes do insensitive things like looking into peoples\u2019 living room or go into private gardens when we are in environments that are totally different from home. Therefore, walk like you would in the street back home, and give the locals a nod (don\u2019t bother with the \u201cgood afternoon\u201d bit, we\u2019re not that formal).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-you-start-on-heim-ya-island\">You start on Heim\u00f8ya Island<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Galleri Lofotens Hus is close to the bridgehead on the western Heim\u00f8ya Island, and you soon arrive at a little square with \u201cJoker\u2019n\u201d, the little local shop where you can also have coffee in a paper cup. The main road is a narrow, winding thing, and when a car comes, you have to stand close to a house while the driver carefully passes by. The Caviar factory is a little detour to the right. Passing the Engelskmannsbrygga craft centre, the candlemaking factory and the Lofotmat delicatessen, you\u2019re almost to the breakwater. Here you make another detour to the right, slightly uphill, to the Henningsv\u00e6r Church, a modern church shaped like the fishracks that surround it. If you get here between March and June, the fishracks are full of cod, complete with cod heads hanging down in a rope. The rest of the year the empty racks make fabulous photo motives.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<div class=\"wp-block-vnn-gallery gallery-count-2\">\n\t\t<ul><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/2012-feb-26_AlohaFeb12_4102.jpg\" data-size=\"1195x800\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">01<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/2012-feb-26_AlohaFeb12_4102.jpg\" alt=\"Fish drying racks are a common sight along the coast \u00a9 Knut Hansvold\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/2012-feb-26_AlohaFeb12_4102.jpg\" data-caption=\"Fish drying racks are a common sight along the coast \u00a9 Knut Hansvold\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/006152_Kristian-Nashoug_www.lofoten.info_.jpg\" data-size=\"1195x800\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">02<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/006152_Kristian-Nashoug_www.lofoten.info_-768x514.jpg\" alt=\"Boathouse with a twist \u00a9 Kristian Nashoug\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/006152_Kristian-Nashoug_www.lofoten.info_.jpg\" data-caption=\"Boathouse with a twist \u00a9 Kristian Nashoug\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><\/ul><div class=\"vnn-gallery-figcaptions\"><figcaption>01: Fish drying racks are a common sight along the coast \u00a9 Knut Hansvold<\/figcaption><figcaption>02: Boathouse with a twist \u00a9 Kristian Nashoug<\/figcaption><\/div>\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-from-the-breakwater-you-see-it-all\">From the breakwater, you see it all<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The breakwater is the number one photo op in Henningsv\u00e6r. Here the entire port with docks, wharf houses and boats mirror in the quiet waters of the port. The grand finale is Mount V\u00e5gakallen, the 942 metre high mountain looming over Henningsv\u00e6r. If you look closely, there is a little natural cross at the top, which is interpreted as a little man carrying a pair of oars. When the boys participated in the Lofoten fishing for the first time at age 14, they were forced by the seasoned fishermen to take off their hat to honour \u201cV\u00e5gakallen\u201d \u2013 the man carrying the oars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-world-s-most-beautiful-football-field-is-found-in-the-middle-of-the-ocean\">The world\u2019s most beautiful football field is found in the middle of the ocean<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Across the breakwater, you come to a more of a residential area, situated on several small islets connected with landfillings . Walk around between the oddly placed houses, sheds and boathouses, take photographs of Mount V\u00e5gakallen as it appears between the houses and listen to the seagull cries. The soccer field is the furthest afield on its own separate island. Surrounded by bare cliffs and roaring seas, the astro turf invites to a football match all year round.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<div class=\"wp-block-vnn-gallery gallery-count-2\">\n\t\t<ul><li

upon sailing across to the islands. Back then, landscape beauty meant fields, idyllic farm houses and greenery, and Lofoten is the exact opposite. However, from the artist Peder Balke\u2019s voyage northwards about 1840 onwards, Art discovered Lofoten. When walking around Galleri Lofotens hus, you see the landscape of Lofoten and the Lofoten fisheries documentet by some of the leading Norwegian painters of the 19th C. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-new-art-is-found-in-the-old-caviar-factory\">The new art is found in the old caviar factory<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The exact opposite is the Caviar Factory, a gallery housed in a caviar factory from the 1950\u2019ies. The stark brick and concrete has been stripped from later alterations and is now a modern, bright and airy exhibition room. Every year, a new exhibit of contemporary art is presented, with some of the great names from the &nbsp;Norwegian and international art scene. The opening of a new exhibit is always a big event in art circles.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<div class=\"wp-block-vnn-gallery gallery-count-2\">\n\t\t<ul><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/000487_Espen-Mortensen-esmofoto.no_www.nordnorge.com_-2.jpg\" data-size=\"1920x1440\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">01<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/000487_Espen-Mortensen-esmofoto.no_www.nordnorge.com_-2.jpg\" alt=\"You don&#039;t have to climb to experience the midnight sun.

A stylish alternative is \u201cDen bl\u00e5 fisk\u201d, &#8211; The blue fish &#8211; overlooking the port from large windows. Trandamperiet is an old cod liver oil factory that has been converted into a restaurant and delicatessen.

I never do, as I have more than enough stuff. Chances are, however, that you end up buying something in Henningsv\u00e6r, as the shopping on offer is of the unique kind. Fleeting pleasures like a whole smoked cod roe at Trandamperiet, the home made caviar from the Lofotmat delicatessen or the handmade candles at the candle factory make excellent gifts. You will look good for many years if you buy the beanies at Haddock, available in many colours. Craft from Engelskmannsbrygga is made to last.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-climb-that-mountain\">Climb that mountain<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>V\u00e5gekallen is a tough and challenging mountain with precipitous cliffs, one that only seasoned travellers should dare doing. However, the Festv\u00e5gtinden next to it is an easier climb, but of course there is a lot of uphill there too. It awards you a bird\u2019s eye view of Henningsv\u00e6r and a panorama along the entire chain of islands. The steep cliffsides around Henningsv\u00e6r have made it a little hub for the mountain climbers.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<div class=\"wp-block-vnn-gallery gallery-count-2\">\n\t\t<ul><li
