Himberg is an exclave village in Sandefjord Municipality in Vestfold county, Norway. The rural agricultural village is located entirely within Larvik Municipality (historically it was within Tjølling municipality until 1988). It sits a little less than 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) west of the border with the rest of Sandefjord Municipality, thus making it an exclave. It is located about 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) to the southwest of the city of Sandefjord and about 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) east of the village of Verningen (in Larvik). The European route E18 highway runs just north of the village.[2][3][4]
