Reisa is the name of the peculiar, harsh, and totally unique area far behind the Arctic Circle of Norway, spreading itself in the little-known Nordreisa Kommune (municipality) in the northern part of the Troms county. What makes Reisa so special is its incredibly diverse, wild, and untouched nature. Reisa is a “microworld” on its own. Here, on a small area, you find the most types of Norwegian landscapes.

From dramatic “Lofoten-like” coastal landscapes with deep fjords and sharp, steep peaks over incredible old canyons and giant vertical rock walls with incredible couloirs to endless and relatively flat inland mountain plateaus called “vidda”—the home of the native Sámi people and their reideer herds. Simply put, Reisa has the highest concentration of different kinds of natural beauty in all of Scandinavia.
