Bjerkvik - Rahkka

Bjerkvik sits at the head of Herjangsfjorden in Nordland, Norway, where the E6 and E10 roads meet between the Ofoten fjords and the mountains inland. The settlement belongs to Narvik Municipality and is an important road junction for travel across northern Norway, linking the route north toward Troms with connections to Lofoten. Its wartime history is marked by the Battle of Bjerkvik in May 1940, part of the wider Narvik campaign, when Allied troops fought German forces here. The fjord shore and steep mountain slopes give the place a distinctly Arctic-Norwegian character. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of Bjerkvik and Nordland.
