The Idrettslag Stadion is a small fishing
village of Henningsvær has been accessible by road, located two two small
islands off Lofoten, in Norway.
Henningsvær Stadium can hardly be called a football stadium; it has got
no stands just a couple of meters of asphalt poured around the field and is
used only for amateur football. The stadium itself provides synthetic field and
floodlighting for evening games, though of course it wouldn’t suffice for TV
broadcast. Atypically enough for a fishing village, the racks are the only
thing preventing the ball from landing in cold sea waters surrounding the
place. This tiny Norwegian sports venue grew largely in popularity on the
internet around three years ago.
The Henningsvær Stadium is enough to allow the
amateur club Henningsvær IL to train four groups of local boys! The stadium
location is extremely awesome, located on a rocky islet surrounded by stunning
views consisting of dramatic mountains and jagged peaks, open sea and sheltered
bays. The real treasure of Lofoten archipelago is visiting by travelers from
all over the world by appreciating the landscape. The stadium photo is viral in
media even FIFA has admired the ground location.
Therefore, the viral Henningsvær Stadium pitch
was laid by leveling the solid bedrock of the southernmost part of the
Hellandsøya Island, resulting in a very uneven landscape, decorated by vast
number of racks for drying cod. Moreover, around the perimeter of the field is
a strip of asphalt that serves both as the crowd stand and as car parking. The
stadium’s tiny capacity seems sufficient since the village of Henningsvær has
only about 500 populations. So if you are going you probably wouldn't have much
problem getting a game on this wonderful pitch. Finally, this football field in
Henningsvær in the Lofoten Islands is considered one of the most amazing fields
in Europe, and maybe even in the world. Source: CP
