Ive been coming to northern Norway for about 20 years, this year will be my first time driving to the Lofoten. I've never been there. I really look forward to this little road trip. Edit: good video too
Fantastic drive! I thought this was taken during lockdown till I saw it is 7 years old! If there were so few cars then what is it like now? Stunning scenery and great stable filming, congrats.
If I have read the description correctly, the video was shot from late afternoon ( 5 PM ) to late-night ( 23 PM ). The area where he drove is not very populated. The towns, villages and single dwellings are few and spread out.
Some factual information: This video is labelled with Lofoten which is less than a half truth. The video/drive starts in Bjerkvik just outside Narvik .... which is in Ofoten .... not in Lofoten. For the first 2 hours and 20 minutes of the video or the first 182 km is the drive not in Lofoten. The last 50 km (of the not in Lofoten stretch ) are within Vesterålen. Then at the place named Higrav he enters Vågan kommune which is within Lofoten. So only the last 150 km of the drive are actually in Lofoten. It is not a bad thing to know where you are and to be a bit more precise in geography.
This was my first trip to Europe, so my understanding of geography was lacking. I mistakenly thought that the part of Norway that juts out from the continent to the west is all the Lofoten Islands. Thank you very much for your help.
@@FightFCGIFU Don't worry to much. The nature/scenery is the same whatever name. There are many around who even don't know where Europe is. I hope you took the time to visit some of the places along the route. I can tell that the road section between 1h 39min and 2h10min in the video goes through a uniqe area. That section was opened in Des.2007. Before that had the area been pristine. No people lived there. So no roads just nature in it purest form. There were many - including me - who were against cutting into that unique area. As you saw it is extremely mountainous, so they needed to construct long tunnels - even an under the sea tunnel - and many bridges. At least they have established a national park , which you drive alongside. Nation park in Norway means..... do not touch the nature in any way..... while in USA it means a tourist destination with roads and visitor centre ..... You started your video in Bjerkvik. Years ago when I studied engineering in Narvik. We were a group of students driving through Bjerkvik and got a speeding ticket ..... the driver "forgot" it was a 50km/h zone. On the other end of the scale was when I stood in Bjerkvik trying to get a lift home - along E10. Then there came an ambulance with flashing blue lights (a bit faster than the speed limit). They stopped and picked me up and gave me a very fast ride for the next 100 km. I may add that there were no patient onboard ... they just needed to get fast to Harstad. So if you need "special service" you can get it in Northern Norway......
@@xpost9381 I see. So the main road to the tip of the Lofoten Islands was built rather recently. It is a difficult problem to build a road in an area rich in nature, because there are both good and bad sides to it. However, for me, it was nice to see the beautiful scenery of mountains with few trees and the beautiful sea. In Japan, where I live, there are only mountains overgrown with trees. I rented a car and drove from Oslo to Ålesund, the glaciers, Bergen and the fjords in the fall of 2019. It was my second trip to Norway.

The northern seas and mountains of Norway are nice. The day after I filmed this, I drove to Sweden. Abisko -> Kiruna -> Bittangi -> Pajala. ua-cam.com/video/qgwKH5Bt7NI/v-deo.html
It's a nice view, isn't it? I live in Japan where there are a lot of trees in the mountains, so the scenery in the mountains without trees feels fresh and new. It is.
@@yvindascanius6061 But there was a town here and there. By the way, in Iceland, where the scenery is similar to ours, there are really no shops at all.
@@yvindascanius6061 "...houses are few and far apart". Well..... it's not exactly inner London or New York. But your knowledge could need an update. This of the most populated areas in Northern Norway. Along that road in the video you will find around 77000 people living. That is within a 10-15 minutes drive / detour from that road (E 10). The road does not go into the centre of the communities..... therefore you don't see those places. The video starts in Bjerkvik which is just outside the centre of Narvik with 23000 inhabitants. After 30 min. he passes the major airport of Evenes. The airport in Northern Norway with the largest capacity to handle whatever size of airplanes. It is an important airbase .... actually the airbase for NATO in the Arctic. After the big suspension bridge at 44 min you are in Harstad and can take the longest detour (20 min) to Harstad centre with 25000 inhabitants. In Lofoten itself there are around 23000 inhabitants. So for me .... well.... it is really to many people to go and count them one by one. But maybe something for you who think they are so few.....
@@xpost9381 Thank you for that update. The last time I was in Norway was in 1971 and I never got further north than Trondheim and a bit to the west to a tiny fishing village called Upphaug to visit family there. I have been told I have been as far north as Lofoten, but I was only 2 or 3 years old, so I don't remember anything from that trip!
This video helps me prepare my own trip to Lofoten island,Thank you for sharing. from a fellow road tripper and creator.
Stunning videos I mean wow those views..so so beautiful. Thanks for sharing 😊👍
I also visited the Lofoten Islands, a tremendous experiensse. Lovely country.🏔🌏🏘💓🏔
This year we planned to travel again on this road. Now I sit in quarantine, watch the video. 👍✌️✊🙌
Please go, I drove through Norway (Oslo to Ålesund to Bergen to Oslo) again in September 2019 after this video myself. [...] [...]

I'm looking forward to that!

You're welcome. The view of the Lofoten Islands was very nice.

FightFCGIFU I went Lofoten on February. Very fantastic route.
@@agitoee1086 So you went to Lofoten in the winter!
I took the video myself in June, but Lofoten in the snow on a polar night looks good, too.
NORWAY TAKES MY BREATHE AWAY...
It's a nice view, isn't it? I live in Japan where there are a lot of trees in the mountains, so the scenery in the mountains without trees feels fresh and new. It is.
I drove too all along that fantastic road...thank you..

I took this photo while driving for 5 hours.
Nice! I have been driving here many times during the years. Scenic place and road!
It was the first trip to Europe. It was very like to drive the Nordic-Arctic fjord.
Thank You!
You’re very welcome.
I dont live far from there! Ive been there a ton of times. Amazing place :)
I also live in far away, but it went over a period of several tens of hours from Japan.
Northern Norway was very beautiful.
One day, in the not so long future ahead, I will do that driving too😎

Hermoso paisaje!
Me encanta el Ártico noruego porque es un mar hermoso y un paisaje alpino al mismo tiempo.
Nice video man

What is the speed? And distance?

Bowl!
By the way, I will drive more slowly from now on.

Thank you very much as very very useful for me thank you

Super Video!!!
Thank you very much. I took the footage for 5 hours while I replaced the batteries in my digital camera.
Where are the houses. Nothing but the road
This is a very sparsely populated area of Norway.The houses are few and far apart.
The Lofoten Islands, with towns here and there, were quite prosperous. There were factories and huge supermarkets.
@@yvindascanius6061 But there was a town here and there. By the way, in Iceland, where the scenery is similar to ours, there are really no shops at all.

I went myself after watching a video ( www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm11810298 ) of bike touring in the Lofoten Islands.
سبحان الله الخالق المصور البديع-ااحسنت-النشر
شكرا جزيلا لك. لقد استمتعت بالقيادة في شمال أوروبا. بالمناسبة ، في خريف عام 2018 ، سافرت إلى الإمارات العربية المتحدة وسلطنة عمان.
what month is filmed ?
I filmed it in mid-June.
6月中旬です。
#تلاوات_خاشعة

مناضر رائعه سبحان الله-
أحب المناظر الطبيعية للبحر والجبال بدون أشجار في الدائرة القطبية الشمالية في النرويج.
Goooooood
Thanks.
what car is that
Car that was used to movie shooting is a "Ford Fiesta".
I've rented from Rovaniemi Airport in Finland.
Wwwwvery good
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
النرويج اجمل بلدان العالم،،
قدت جنوب النرويج في الخريف الماضي. أنا شخصياً أفضل المشهد الشمالي ، مثل جزر لوفتن.
I don't like this , the driving attitude.
I'll do my best to drive safely.
I drove too all along that fantastic road.. X 2.thank you so much.......
You're welcome. I love the Norwegian Arctic landscape.
