Finally, it's time to return to Norway. The Senja region remains a hidden gem for travellers. Before exploring Senja, we will also visit the Vesterålen. These islands lie 200 to 400 kilometres north of the Arctic Circle, above the Lofoten Islands. Few landscapes in Norway offer as many different impressions as the island of Senja. When the weather is sunny, it's like finding paradise on earth. Mighty mountains rise almost 1,000 metres above deep blue waters. Small beaches exude a Caribbean atmosphere, while the gentle green of the inland forests invites you to relax and rejuvenate. But when rain and fog set in, the region suddenly reveals its rugged side, and it is easy to see why the mountain range in the north is called Djevlens Tanngard, the Devil's Teeth. Senja is often referred to as Norway in miniature, as it has everything that makes up Norway: fjords, steep cliffs, rock formations, trolls, waterfalls, the Northern Lights, reindeer and elk. The unspoilt nature and vastness of the island is truly captivating. Most foreigners have never heard of this island, but the locals know the beauty of Senja. You won't find cruise ships or overcrowded sightseeing buses here, which preserves Senja's authenticity. The Lofoten islands, just south of Senja, have unfortunately become overcrowded. There used to be a supermarket every 50 kilometres, but this has changed considerably. See more videos here: #hdr #senja #norway
