6 Historic Walking Areas in Northern Norway That You Shouldn't Miss

October 26, 2021 Kelli Reichel

Home to both the midnight sun (with constant daylight from April to July) and the northern lights, North Norway is a rugged land of steep mountains, deep fjords and scenic coastline, making it a great place for outdoor adventures like dog sledding, snowmobiling and wildlife safaris. It's also the ancient home of the Sami people, 3,000 of whom live (along with 100,000 reindeer) at Kautokeino, Norway's largest municipality at over 3,700 square miles.

North Cape

Reviewed By Dizzi57

Did the North Cape tour off a Hurtigruten cruise. Beautiful and scenic bus trip and then we got to the Cape. Very, very lucky with the weather, clear skies and lots of snow. Got some great photos and would recommend. It would be worthwhile to see in Summer, totally different outlook then.

Galleri SOS

Galleri SOS presents works of Stig-Ove Sivertsen. Impermanence is a recurrent theme of his paintings. Melancholic faces and still life. Rust. Pollution. Skulls. Stormy weather. Tired houses. Car wrecks. Landscapes, as they were created. Style? What's it about? He can't say - because then everyoneknows.

Vegaoyan -The Vega Archipelago

Reviewed By wilhelmm-norway - Fornebu, Norway

Vega comprises endless number of island, with bays, inlets, sounds, straights and shallow water between them. Most beautiful tableaux imaginable, and not important whether it rains or the sun shines - probably you will experience it all. Do try out water activities: Kayacking, white water rafting around the islands at hi speed, or slow fishing. Vega is rejuvenation and fonding your inner peace - enjoy!
