Thanks for Great video! 👍 Hamningberg is the only place in Finnmark with wooden houses from before WW2. The Germans located there evacueted in a hurry and didnt burn the buildings down as they where supposed to.
There were a few buildings further west that survived the war too. Eight churches were spared because the German commanders in charge flatly refused to burn down a church and there was at least one small shed somewhere they overlooked. But that was all that was left across an area larger than Denmark.
Almost true. Vadsø was neither burned down. The Germans where in too rush getting away to bother burning it down, and besides most of the town was already in ruins from the Sovjets airbombing the town. But the buildings who survived the bombings, where left alone by the Germans. Mostly houses built from 1840 to 1940.
Its a memory of a rescuemission done by Colin Archer boat in 1894, these wessels where the first rescue wessels of Norway, one of the new ones are named after this.
Back then, most fishingwessels where rowingboats, they could have several fishermen that rowed out to the fishingfield and then back with the catch. Later on motorized fishingwessels came.
Hey, Jeremy -- Everything about this video is so much like you -- cool and laid back. Did you eat a lot of fresh fish up there? Some of it, at least, was really great, I bet.
Thanks a lot. Nice to know the videos have a style of their own! Yes I had quite a lot of fish, lots of delicious salmon. They'd serve it at breakfast, lunch and/or dinner, depending on where you go. I certainly never got tired of it
Its not towns dump!!! its from people who have been cleaning up the beaches and they come and collect that later... it happens all around in Norway and is encouraged by government to do these kinds of things. The town is abandoned, the houses you see are now holidayhouses owned by mostly people in Båtsfjord or Vardø I would think ... the town got abandoned in the 60's... Around at the time they got a road built to that place 😛
As a fellow nature photographer, I totally agree about those poles. Of course, they are absolutely necessary in the winter, but yeah, they look really ugly in pictures.
Weather station Cord vertical - Fine weather String flutters - Wind Cord vertical - Storm Cord dry - Dry weather String white - Snowy weather String stiff - Frost Cord invisible - Fog String gone - Hurricane That is the reason why there are orange sticks on the side of the road. When there is a lot of weather, you don't want to know where the road is, or ends.
I think it's really interesting and inspiring how people have systems like this to help them live in some difficult situations. Thanks for the translation
Search for; "The partisan museum in Kiberg tells an unknown war story", then you will know why and how those three was shot and why there is a memorial about them. There is many stories, and you have to know the history to know about them.
When I was at Hamningberg many many years ago, I was at top of those rocky hills to see the iirc ww2 ruins, so I'm guessing if you didn't see anyone they could've been up there?
Hmm maybe. I wish I'd known about them - I did see some WW2 ruins a few days before this and it was a crazy experience: ruclips.net/video/sv2QTwmNN6s/видео.html
My family on my fathers side used to live there before they moved away, the memorial plate says "fell under the defense of Norway against fascism" they where partisans fighting against the German invaders...
3:14 If there are no speed limit sign, the max speed on Norwegian highways is always 80 km/h (50 mph) but yes, you have to be mad to drive that fast on such a road. There are lots of mad people in Finnmark.
This country’s beauty let me dying to, and it also brings me the feeling of home❤appreciate for your Norwegian videos 🎉
Thanks for sharing a truly incredible drive.
You're very welcome. I really fell in love with this place too
It is in fact two cafes there, but you're a bit out of season. They are usually just open in the summertime.
Well I'll just have to go back then
Thanks for Great video! 👍 Hamningberg is the only place in Finnmark with wooden houses from before WW2. The Germans located there evacueted in a hurry and didnt burn the buildings down as they where supposed to.
It's a special place, for sure

Nice video!
Such an amazing place, I went last year and I`m heading back up this June to explore more. Great video!
You're lucky, it's a great place. Enjoy
Jeremy,you need to make t shirts with your cartoon logo!
I'll buy one for sure mate!
I was there about 10 years ago. Gorgeous.Looks like another Planet. When I drove, I saw some goats
I'd have loved that. I'm always willing to be held up by wildlife in the road :)
The lady was right, that drive was amazing! Love traveling with you!
Wow pretty desolate up but it is pretty thanks for another great travel safe
Hey Larry, yeah this is where desolation and prettiness and a fun road experience all met

Thanks for the info. The beaches were always nice, so I think that system is working well :)
People do burn or bury waste on the beaches though. Not as common now compared to a few years ago though
A Hamningberg river dance!😂
Indeed!
there's alot of german bunkers in Hamningberg

Kind of makes me want to go back and do it when they aren't there. Kinda pricy though...

Four letter highway number exist all over Norway, but it is the first time I have seen a sign with the number.
I'd like to do a series of trips and videos about all of Norway's 4-digit highways!
Nice cycling path 🙃😊 beautiful 🚲 it would be cool to ride a bike from Vardo to / from Hamninberg …weather permitting😊 cool video cool 🇳🇴
That would indeed be a phenomenal experience. One of the world's great rides

Why did you not film the huge brew and the bay?
The huge brew?

Haha
There is also a rule in the traffic law that you must drive as the conditions allow. This includes being able to stop in time.
This was uploaded 3 weeks ago, but I'd say it must have been filmed last year some time.
That is correct, late 2022
Excellent. 🇳🇴 Probably no 911 service out there.???
Hmm. I don't know, Norway is pretty reliable. They might have it, but you might have to wait a while ;)
@@T1DWanderer thanks
The road to the left in this village leads to the old cemetery💀
Interesting, I bet it's pretty atmospheric
