Arctic
Experience - Norway Norwegian Lapland, or Finnmark as it is also known, covers more than 48,000 square kilometres of wild and wonderful nature on the same latitude as Siberia, Greenland and Alaska. It is a land of huge contrasts with a diverse and breathtaking landscape, from a rugged, fjord-indented coastline to miles upon miles of peaceful plains. |
Norway Direct
Those who have heard about Norway, have often heard stories of a cold country
far to the north where polar bears wander the streets and snow permanently
shrouds the forest. In fact, although Norway occupies the northern end of
Europe, the summer temperatures often reach 25 degrees and over.Although
you can, strictly speaking, see polar bears wander around on Norwegian territory,
you have to travel to the island of Spitsbergen which is located much further
north than mainland Norway - close to the North Pole.

of Europe, Norway is a country with one eye looking inland at the vast natural
