Norwegian Lapland and Northern Norway
FR
Slightly more populated with a few towns (Bodø, Tromsø, Narvik...) than its neighbours, Norwegian Lapland offers a different side of Norway. Beyond Sami culture and traditions, the region is a vast playground for nature and adventure lovers, both in summer and during the long winter months. It's also where you can experience the midnight sun, the northern lights, Nordkapp, and stunning archipelagos, with the Lofoten being the most famous.
