10 Scenic Drives in Northern Norway That You Shouldn't Miss

September 13, 2021 Janette Largent

Home to both the midnight sun (with constant daylight from April to July) and the northern lights, North Norway is a rugged land of steep mountains, deep fjords and scenic coastline, making it a great place for outdoor adventures like dog sledding, snowmobiling and wildlife safaris. It's also the ancient home of the Sami people, 3,000 of whom live (along with 100,000 reindeer) at Kautokeino, Norway's largest municipality at over 3,700 square miles.

If you are staying in Brønnøysund, you should go on top of the bridge in town. Use your feet and go there, its a nice walk.
