North Norway, Norway

Northern Norway - a holiday for individualists and adventurers

The north of Norway is famous for the fact that the landscape is covered with snow throughout almost the whole year. But nevertheless, this region is full of sights and provides the perfect scenery for tourists who want to spend their holidays off the beaten track.

Those travelling to this part of Norway should not miss the opportunity of visiting Vardø. The small town is situated about 420 kilometres from the Arctic Circle, and Russia or Finland are only a stone’s throw from there. But at the same time, Vardø is a good starting point for cruises with the mail boats. A small highlight which is offered to tourists in Vardø is the possibility to go to sea with the fishermen and take part in the fishing.

Those looking for adventures in their holidays can make an excursion through the north of Norway with a snow car. On their round trip through the country, holidaymakers will find holiday homes, holiday flats or hotels in various places.

The north of Norway is a region for individual travellers and adventurers who prefer exploring a barren landscape to lying in the sun on the beach. Round trips through Norway are not problematic since Norwegians are said to be extremely hospitable and gladly offer their help to the traveller.
