Things to do in Northern Norway, Northern Norway: The Best Piers & Boardwalks

July 30, 2021 Sachiko Swiger

Home to both the midnight sun (with constant daylight from April to July) and the northern lights, North Norway is a rugged land of steep mountains, deep fjords and scenic coastline, making it a great place for outdoor adventures like dog sledding, snowmobiling and wildlife safaris. It's also the ancient home of the Sami people, 3,000 of whom live (along with 100,000 reindeer) at Kautokeino, Norway's largest municipality at over 3,700 square miles.

The landscape and sea views are breathtaking travelling to the centre. They have just finished 4 new lodges. Everything is immaculate. Great harbour view. Private veranda. Afternoon staying at five different hotels lodges on our trip to tromso. This was the best. We really did not want to go. And if you have time the two day bodo trip is amazing.

Hemmestad Wharf

There lies a yellow pearl by the sea at Hemmestad. Time has stood still here for almost 200 years. History is everywhere. The store, the cod liver barrel and the nordlandsboat that bathe in the sun on the pebble beach, help to create a magical feeling from days gone by. Today the trading post is a museum where the old building on the wharf stands intact with shop, post office, store and museum exhibitions. Opening hours 23.06.-14.06.2011: Tuesday – Thursday 10:00 – 16:00 Saturday and Sunday 11:00 – 17:00 Off-season by appointment.

Moloen

Reviewed By Nesher2010 - Tel Aviv, Israel

Moloen is a concrete breakwater built in 1904 and renovated in 1980. Walk along to its farthermost point to observe the city and the sea, and to meet ships entering and exiting the harbour. On some occasions, when a ferry or big sail ship arrives, a cannon in Nyholms Fort fires a salute.

Nusfjord Fishing Village

Reviewed By bernardbW3637OC - Bergen, Norway

This is a super charming little village where you have the chance to take amazing pictures of the traditional wooden buildings and the seaside landscape; even on a stormy day is worth a visit. You arrive here by a little road trough the mountains, this gives you more the idea of how isolated were these village in the past, it is definitely my favourite in the whole Lofoten islands. Next time I want to try the hot tub and sauna.
