An old, traditional fishing village with fishermen’s cabins

Å, what a place

Å Rorbuer is beautifully situated at the tip of the Lofoten Peninsula, surrounded by the dramatic landscapes of Lofoten. Here, you can experience staying in one of Lofoten’s most charming fishing cabins, as well as enjoying local cuisine at the Brygga Restaurant and Lobbybar.

This area bears clear traces of glaciers and the mighty forces of nature that have created this unique landscape. It is among Norway’s most wild and fascinating regions, with mountains that steeply meet the sea, and small bridges and causeways connecting the islands, creating an atmosphere unlike any other.

An ideal starting point for exploring the scenic beauty and traditions of Lofoten.

Reception is staffed from 12.00 – 20.00 Monday – Saturday. (Sundays closed)

The story about Å

From the end of the 19th century

Å – what a place

Å is often regarded as the best-preserved fishing village in the whole of Lofoten. Å, together with the many other small villages along the coast, has been an important part of the history of Lofoten fishing. Many of the traditional rorbue were built at the end of the 19th century or the beginning of the 20th century to offer accommodation to the fishermen during the various fishing seasons.
Today you can find several restored buildings from the 19th century, and they are open to visitors.
