Far north, but mild
Due to the warm, powerful and swift Atlantic drift, the Golf Stream, hitting the shores of Northern Norway, this is one of the few places in the world where you can experience the Arctic nature and light phenonema in comfortable temperatures. Around -2 degrees celsius in the winter and around 12+ degrees celsius in the summer. This makes Northern Norway unique, and the perfect place to enjoy the stunning Arctic in civilised conditions!
Welcome to my Arctic!
My name is Helene Hokland, and I grew up on a farm in Northern Norway. After 17 years in London I returned to my birthplace and deceided I would like to show people this very special part of the world. Tromsø and Lofoten have been heavily promoted by the tourist industry, but I would like to show you some of the hidden treasures of the Arctic, like Harstad and Vesteralen, as well as Lofoten. There is just as much rich history, stunning nature, northern lights and midnight sun here as anywhere else in Northern Norway. Discover and enjoy!
