Sitting on the Krystriksveien Coastal Route west of the Arctic Highway, Bodø is the gateway to Norway’s north wonderland. With the rugged landscapes of the peaks in the background and the vast, clear skies above, a wander around this snow-capped destination will uncover hidden gems, dramatic islands off the frosty shores and white-tailed eagles in abundance. Hit the highway on the most northern point on Norway’s railway system and explore Lofoten Islands.
