Visit space

With endless landscapes, glistening waters, sky-piercing mountains, airy cities and only 15 people per square kilometer - Norway is out of this world. While billionaires orbit the planet, anyone can enjoy the amazing views from Norwegian Space, right here on planet earth. So if you need some space – Varanger and Norway got it!

Feel like exploring another planet...? Take a closer look at Varangers unique, natural rock formation one the road to Berlevåg or long National ScenicRoutes Varanger towards Hamningberg. Some parts of Norway are even spacier than others roam in the footsteps of reindeer at Varangerhalvøyas National Park in Varanger the arctic part og Northern Norway. Our National park is protected. No cars. No hassle.

Just you and the polar wilderness. In Varanger can you spend time where the sun never sets. Or never comes up. Up north, the midnight sun shines both night and day during the summer months. If you are lucky, you may get to see the northern lights fill the winter sky. This may be the cosmic phenomenon that's closest to the forces of space!

Welcome to Varanger Arctic Norway

In the far north and as far east as you can go in Norway, where the sky meets the sea, lies Varanger, bathed in the midnight sun and the northern lights of winter. Here the wild landscape meanders through bird-nesting cliffs, fishing villages, and rugged headlands – out to the end of the world.
Nature offers rivers teeming with fish, snow-clad plains, exotic king crabs, birds breeding in spring, leaping salmon, the shining sea, and dancing northern lights. People and traditions make Varanger an Arctic melting pot of communities and cultures. Varanger is a different experience. Scenery and settlements, the light, the colours, the lofty sky and wide horizon, exciting activities and the open people.
