Typified by steep mountains and the flat lowlands where they meet the Norwegian Sea, Nordland is known for its stunning scenery. The Lofoten Islands off the mainland are considered among the world's best for travelers and include unique attractions like the Lofotr Viking Museum at Borg. Saltstraumen near Bodo has the world's strongest tidal current. Further south, Vega has been designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its age-old lifestyle of fishing and eider duck down harvesting.

The Bollmann's road was built by Russian, Yugoslavian and Polish prisoners during the 2nd World War. Today, the road is lined with information signs about the war in Storfjord and is leading up to a great viewpoint. On the way up to this war memorial, there is a rest area and a toilet. On top you will find a reconstructed bunker used for accommodation. A summer trip offers beautiful views of the midnight sun!

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).

The landscape and sea views are breathtaking travelling to the centre. They have just finished 4 new lodges. Everything is immaculate. Great harbour view. Private veranda. Afternoon staying at five different hotels lodges on our trip to tromso. This was the best. We really did not want to go. And if you have time the two day bodo trip is amazing.

Vegatrappa is a something which "every Norwegian tourist" want to climb and therefore may be crowded. But it is worth the climb and crowd. And even with many people around, it's no problem to do the climb. The view is spectacular. A stay with dinner at "Havhotellene" and a climb at Vegatrappa is a must!

It was worth all the money! I was extremely lucky with weather this day, since sun was shining and it was very refreshing to speed drive the catamaran who took us to the largest underwater current in the whole World! We saw sea eagles and some stone and rock formation that I have nevwr seen elsewhere. If I should describe it, it look like Mother earth's blood viens! It is possible to do this in winter to, but with bus, but Im pretth sure is coolest with a boat like me and my colleagues did..

This hiking trail (2,4 km) is located in Lulledalen Nature Reserve, and contains information posters about the flora and fauna. The area is rich with orchids that should be experienced in bloom time (June / July).
