6J: RIB Expedition on 71 degrees North

Discover the North Cape like a true explorer and enjoy views from Europe's northernmost point.

In Havøysund, you will board a RIB (rigid-inflatable boat) for an exhilarating ride along the rugged Finnmark coastline. You will see seabirds nesting along the base of cliffs, and learn about the local wildlife, geography and culture from your guide. View the impressive North Cape plateau from the sea level before heading to Hornvika, which was the starting point for climbs up the plateau up until the road was built in 1965. Continue to Skarsvåg, the northernmost fishing village in the world, where there will be a short hike to Kirkeporten, a special rock formation with spectacular views. After a short refreshment break, a bus will take you up to the North Cape where you will enjoy spectacular views from Europe’s northernmost point!
