Members of Lerwick jarl squad enjoy Måløy visit
A LARGE group from this year’s 2026 jarl squad are currently visiting Lerwick’s twin town of Måløy.
The five-day visit to Norway included a trip up the mountains above the town of Loen and a close inspection the world’s largest replica longship.
The design of the longship was taken from ultrasound of Viking ship graves buried on land.
