'Landscape & Local Story'

 

Reine 📍, often described as the “jewel of the Lofoten Islands,” is a small fishing village on the island of Moskenesøya, famous worldwide for its breathtaking scenery. Nestled between steep granite peaks that plunge into emerald fjords, Reine’s colorful houses and red rorbuer (fishermen’s cabins) line the shoreline, reflecting in the still waters of Reinefjorden.
