“Here I stand at Nordkapp, the extreme of Finnmark, at the very end of the world,” said Franscesco Negri in the winter of 1664. Over 300 years later, Nordkapp has become a major destination. The mighty plateau rises 307 meters above the Arctic Ocean, and marks the end point of the European mainland.

The journey to Nordkapp is unforgettable. The scenery is breathtaking. Cliff coast that plunges down into the endless sea, treeless plains and picturesque fishing villages. Frozen shores and snow-capped mountains in winter, a coastline rich in wildlife and history. Endless daylight and haunting landscapes in summer. The journey to Nordkapp is a unique experience of nature.
