Why stay around Kabelvåg

Vågan Church, a timber cruciform church of 1898 with about 1,200 seats, stands above the village. Visit Lofoten puts Svolvær Airport about fifteen minutes away, buses run between Svolvær, Kabelvåg and Henningsvær, and a dedicated walking and cycling path links Kabelvåg with Svolvær.

Families who want museums and Svolvær's services within reach without staying in Svolvær itself. Most houses in the old wooden centre are private homes, and Visit Lofoten asks visitors not to photograph through windows and to drive slowly there. Check dates on Booking.com.

Questions
- Are there cabins in Kabelvåg itself?
- Check the address on each listing. The cabins and lodges on this page are grouped with Kabelvåg, so a cabin listed here is not necessarily in the village.
- How far is Kabelvåg from Svolvær?
- Five to six kilometres south-west along the E10. Visit Lofoten puts Svolvær Airport about fifteen minutes away, buses run between Svolvær, Kabelvåg and Henningsvær, and a dedicated walking and cycling path links the two places.
- What is there to do in Kabelvåg with children?
- At Storvågan, just west of the centre, SKREI brings together the Lofoten Museum, the Lofoten Aquarium and the Espolin Gallery. The Lofoten Museum occupies a manor house completed in 1815 on the site of the medieval town of Vágar, with rorbuer and boathouses beside it.
- Why is Kabelvåg called Lofoten's oldest fishing village?
- Store norske leksikon describes it as Lofoten's oldest fishing village and, in the past, its largest. The sagas record that King Øystein, who reigned from 1103 to 1128, built rorbuer and a church here, and the medieval town of Vágar, the first town in northern Norway, stood nearby.
