The archipelago is located on the northeastern coast of the county Nordland and belongs administratively to the municipalities Vågan and Lofoten. The main islands are Austvågøy, Vestvågøy, Flakstadøya, Moskenesøya, Grytøya and Senja. From Haukland in the south to Ristvatset in the north (both on Vestvågøy), there are three different kinds of setting: inner mountain areas with peaks reaching 1,500 meters above sea level; narrow valleys around 500 meters wide with irregular landscape formed by the glacier; and large fertile plains at sea level below 300 meters above mean sea level. To the north rise sheer cliffs which face Norwegian Sea at an angle of 30 degrees and more. The coast includes many fjords like Lyngenfjorden, Storfjorden, Svolvær fjord plus several smaller bays such as Husvikfjorden and Hustadfjorden.
