Why not try vacationing in an arctic region?

The glacier "Øksfjordjøkelen" in Jøkelfjord

A summer night on the fjord or in the mountains is an experience not to be missed, you can go fishing in the fjord, which contains splendid variation of fish, or you can take a walk in the wilderness surrounding.

The mountain walkers all concede that autumn is the best time of the year. Crystal clear air. Fat trout and char. Hunting. Mushrooms, blueberries and cranberries in abundance.

Storeng in Kvænangen, the mountains "Kvænangstindan" in background Towards the end of November, the sun drops behind the mountains and doesn't return until the end of January. This does not mean that it becomes totally dark, however. The aurora borealis trails its multicoloured banner across the sky and the moon lights the scene just like the nightlight of Our Lord. Many people says that the winter is much better than the summer. Why not try a winter holiday here in the north? The experience of the winter with the uniqueness of the light, the northern lights and snow is fantastic.

Winter in Storeng, the mountains "Kvænangstindan" in background The spring, or late winter as we call it, means endless ski trips, snowscooter tours and dogsled. The fish drift back into the fjords from the Barents Sea, and for a change to these typical winter activities, you can go fishing in the fjord which contains splendid variation of fish. Both fishermen and skiers insist that the spring is the best time of the year.
