Hamsund is part of the municipality of Hamarøy in the county of Nordland. It is known as the place where the famous Norwegian author Knut Hamsun spent the first years of his life. There are many places to see and beautiful scenery, such as the small lake Storjordpolden which is often frozen over. Hamsund is a starting point for many arctic safaris, to see whales, orcas or polar foxes for example. You can also go horseback riding on the great little Icelandic horses that have a fourth look compared to horses! A nice place
