Senja Aurora Adventure
Experience the historic fishing village Torsken
Torsken is perfectly located on the outside of Senja island. The steep mountains plunging deep into the ocean are breathtaking sights and the most prominent feature of Senja. The roads are narrow, twists and turns along fjords with crystal clear, icy-cold waters. Dramatic landscape on a road which is occasionally quite narrow and winding - With these settings explore the possibilities Senja has to offer.
The fishing village Torsken is a historic village that has had fishing as its most important industry.
Directly above the fishing village is a rock formation that previously looked a bit like a cod with a head and reel. According to tradition, this mountain is the origin of the name of the village.
This formation has now collapsed, but you can still see parts of the formation.
The fish-rich fjord of the same name has always provided work and food for the people here and has attracted many fishermen to the place. On-site we now find fish farming (salmon and trout), a salmon processing plant, a fish farm and a styrofoam box factory.
