Excellent for photo in Varanger



A dark winter is over, and know you have 11 hours of day-light in the Varanger-area. The jewels of the north, Stellers and King Eider, are easiest to photograph this time of year. Within a week, you will experience all kinds of weather and plenty of excellent photo opprtunities.

Our GPS will help you find the best and most up-to-date spots for photographing. Check our web-site for more information and booking.
