Introducing Kinsarvik & Lofthus

The picturesque town of Kinsarvik and nearby Lofthus rest peacefully on the shore of Sørfjorden, an offshoot of Hardangerfjord in the heart of a region known as Ullensvang. Kinsarvik wasn’t always so peaceful – it was the site of a settlement of up to 300 Vikings from the 8th to 11th centuries.
