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.

Had a good stop here during a warm day. You can stop below the waterfall and walk up the hill, or stop up at the river, and enjoy the view from the top (just be careful if you walk on the rocks - the shore is safer, at least below the bridge where the road crosses the river).

Laksforsen Waterfall is one of Nordland’s most popular tourist attractions. This majestic waterfall has a water volume of 700 m³ per second and a fall of around 17 m. Sit on the rocks beneath the waterfall and let the cascades of water and nature fill you with wonder and joy. If you are lucky you may also see a salmon jumping.

It's a few kilometers off the main road E6 but close enough for a quick detour and definitely worth it. When you arrive, you will see a camping site - just follow the path starting with a small gate and running along the slope towards the waterfalls - it's a short walk. The restaurant at the camping site also has a nice view, especially from the terrace. You can rent some huts for the night, with a view directly on the waterfall.
”Sarafossen” is a 70 meters (230 ft) vertical waterfall located in the Reisadalen valley. In order to experience this natural wonder we travel 45 km by car up Reisadalen before we continue by foot. The track leading to Sarafossen is quite steep, but the impressive view of the valley and the river is very rewarding.
