Höljes is a minor locality situated in Torsby Municipality, Värmland County, Sweden with 79 inhabitants in 2015.
== History == The earliest farm in the area that later became Norra Finnskoga parish is Höljes. Erik Fernow's description of Värmland, Beskrivning öfwer Wermeland (1773 - 79), tells that there was only one inhabitant in northern Värmland during the 14th century and he lived in Höljes. His closest neighbor lived 150 km from him in Gräs in Sunnemo. The farm that Fernow is referring to is probably Gammalgården.
