Magnificient nature and culture is one of the best definition of Norway.

On the one hand, magnificent nature is composed by high mountains, rough seas, and opened and deep fjords.

On the other hand, culture is scandinavian, european, and for some citizen: Sami. Rich, historical, special, you can learn, understand and experience such different ways of living.

For sure, Norway has a lot to offer. Not fashionable destination, it is however, one of the most complete.

One country, almost two

Extending 1,752 km (1,089 mi) NNE-SSW, Norway has the greatest length of any European country, you have thousands of spots to explore. So, we help you here, to focus your stay with the best of them!

To describe a such country, you can use your arm!

From your elbow to your wrist, we consider it almost like the center and the north parts. The south is your fist.

Southern Norway

We use to hear more about that part which hosts the capital, Oslo and the biggest and touristic well-known cities like Stavanger, Trondheim, Bergen…Those four locations owns more than half of the citizen: +2,5 millions. The other part of the 5 millions are spread in the other parts. Norway’s density is only 13,94 p/km2!

The country is definitely more about nature than human life!

Besides, you can really feel that there is almost two countries. The south where everything happened, where people are…and the north. We almost forget the middle! We consider the North starts from the Polar Circle, around Bodø!

So, you don’t need us to plan your south exploration. Visit Norway has done a really good job to put on relief the best to visit: cultural spots, restaurants, and places.

But to dare yourself to progress up to the North, you have to continue your reading down here!

Gems hidden of Northern Norway

As Ersfjordbotn Brygge is built by a local man, for sure, you read here the real, the truth of Northern Norway: the gems!

Like we have said before, we can use our arm to describe the country. The forearm is narrow and long. You can really see it by eyes, when you travel from island to others from Lofoten to Tromsø for instance… There is almost no mainland! Gems are hidden in the corner of islands…

In Norway, you can count more than 50,000 islands and a coastline of 83,000 kilometres (because of the large number of islands and rugged coastline)! Most of those numbers are provided by that complexe North part. Hinnøya in Lofoten and Senja are the two biggest islands, Kvaløya where we are located, is the 5th.

To conclude, you are allowed to describe Northern Norway, before coming, like a place made by fjords, islands and mountains! With that, it is logically a lot to do here ALSO!

What to do in Northern Norway?

What to do is a question not only to plan your holidays but also to understand our real lifestyle here. The friluftsliv means a passion for nature cuts to the scandinavian hearts, a real open-air living.

Polar Night and Midnight Sun

Summer is the best to camp close to the sea or up to the highest summit for enjoying a perfect sunset with no end! Kayaking, fishing, cruising, walking, hiking are so good here.

Flora and fauna are so special. You can expect to meet species of whale, orcas, dolphins, as much as sea eagles, reindeer, moose, wolves …of course you shall taste and fish the Gold Of Norway: Cod and Salmon!

Tromsø, Northern Light Capital
