Stavanger, blessed with history and natural beauty, was a thriving canning and fishing city until last century when an oil discovery resulted in Stavanger becoming known as the petroleum capital of Norway. The city radiates across a network of islands interlaced with graceful bridges and is a charming blend of old and new.

One of the oldest cities in Norway, Trondheim was founded approximately 1,000 years ago on the southern shores of the Trondheimsfjord at the mouth of the River Nidelva. Woods and mountains are naturally on the agenda for those who wish to venture further afield. This photo shows Nidaros Cathedral – the largest Cathedral in Scandanavia.

Nearly 250 miles inside the Arctic Circle, clues as to your location are everywhere. Bars stock Arctic Beer and the Arctic Cathedral resembles a geometric glacier. So too the Polaria Arctic Centre, whose exhibits recreate a polar bear den and Arctic snowstorm. You may also spot these landmarks from the cable cars that climb Mount Storsteinen and afford spellbinding views.

Touch shore deep within the Arctic Circle, closer to the North Pole than Oslo. Venture out to the isolated Stappen Islands, teeming with kittiwakes, puffins and cormorants. Then stand on the continent’s edge, the North Cape Plateau. Beneath the summer sun, reindeer roam freely on the hulking granite cliff, rising from icy seas and topped with a photogenic globe sculpture.
