Henningsvær Half Marathon 2026

The Henningsvær Half Marathon is a 21.1 km arctic summer street race held in Henningsvær, a fishing village within Norway’s Lofoten archipelago. The race begins and concludes at Trevarefabrikken, with an afternoon start and automatic timing that records a split at the turning point. The distance is stated as 21.1 km, though the organizers mention it is not officially measured. The route proceeds through Henningsvær before heading out of the village on the coastal road towards Rørvika Beach by the E10, then returning on the same road. Runners encounter open coastline, steep Lofoten peaks, and a second loop within the village before finishing back at Trevarefabrikken. The event accommodates runners aiming for a specific time and those appreciating the scenery, but the single road into Henningsvær remains open to traffic, requiring participants to remain aware of cars, residents, and visitors.
