Northern Region

The northern region of Norway varies from precipitous and rugged coastal landscapes to peaceful mountain areas and beaches. From visiting Finnmark - Norwegian Lapland, to white sandy beaches in Nordland, this region offers activities all year around.

Join the fishermen on the fjord, learn about the Sami culture and visit the reindeer herds. For snow lovers, go on a cross county journey or dog sledding tour. Stay at unique types of accommodations like fisherman’s shacks and ‘Rorbu.’

Visitors enthuse over the light nights of the Midnight Sun during the summer months (May–July) and Northern Lights during the winter months (September– late March).

Welcome to the Northern Region!
