Lofoten

Description

Les illes Lofoten són un arxipèlag i un districte tradicional de Nordland, Noruega. Les illes són conegudes per un distintiu paisatge amb muntanyes i pics dramàtics, mar obert i badies, platges i terres verges. Tot i que es troben dins del cercle polar àrtic, l'arxipèlag pateix una de les anomalies de temperatura més elevades del món en relació a la seva alta latitud.

Lofoten era el nom antic de l'illa de Vestvågøya. Prové de «lo», que vol dir linx, i «foten», que significa «peu». La cadena d'illes amb els seus pics punxeguts semblen peus de linx des de terra ferma. Un altre nom que rep és Lofotveggen, «el mur de les Lofoten». L'arxipèlag sembla un mur tancat quan s'observa des de llocs elevats prop de Bodø, amb 100 km de longitud, i entre 800 i 1000 m. d'altura.
