Welcome to Helgeland!
Situated right below the Arctic Circle, Helgeland is the gateway to the Land of the Midnight Sun. At latitude 66 degrees, 33 minutes north the Arctic Circle is surrounded by majestic mountains, untouched nature and thousands of islands dotted along Helgeland’s beautiful coastline.
Helgeland - part of the world's most beautiful coastline. Dramatic, beautiful, untouched by mass tourism and much closer than you think. Get off the beaten track and experience that fleeting moment of pure joy, be inspired by our nature and culture you would otherwise have missed, so come and visit Helgeland. |

The Arctic Circle is the magical boundary of the midnight sun. Visit the Arctic Circle centre as you travel through the Saltfjellet national park or alternatively cross the Arctic Circle by boat and visit the island of Vikingen. 
|
Visit the World Heritage island of Vega, the mountains of the Seven Sisters (Syv Søstre), the fishing village of Træna or any of the other 15,000 islands in Helgeland. And why not do it by bike?

Hiking far out to sea is a unique experience. There is lots to see and do on the island of Lovund. Bring your mountain boots and follow the Ramblers' Association marked walking trails all the way to the top.

Vega and the surrounding islands were awarded UNESCO World Heritage status in 2004. Bird wardens have established a unique form of cooperation with the eider ducks here, and now you too can take part.

The Arctic Circle is the magical boundary of the midnight sun. On this drive you will have the best of both coast and inland regions.
