Discover Norway — far north, close to nature
There are places in Norway where everything feels a little bigger. Heaven. The sea. The silence. The light. Mehamn is one of those places. You don't come here by chance — you come because you want to experience Norway for real. Northern Norway, where winter sets the tone, and nature shows itself from its most raw and honest side. Out here, in the far north of the Nordkyn Peninsula, open expanses, arctic winds, clear starry skies and a nature that feels powerful and close await. It is in this atmosphere that Nordic Safari takes place — a place that makes it easy to get out, whether you want to hunt the Northern Lights or ride a snowmobile through landscapes that could have been taken straight out of film.
Northern Lights — the silent light show in the north
Northern Lights in Mehamn It's not like the Northern Lights anywhere else. Here it is dark enough, quiet enough, and open enough for the light to really get to play. As the sky opens, the green light waves over mountains and oceans -- slowly, softly, suddenly intensely, as if the whole universe is quivering a little.
Nordic Safari offers Northern Lights tours where you are taken into the countryside, far away from artificial light. You sit there with a warm suit, thick hat and hot drink, and something happens inside you as the shower lights dance over you.
It is an experience that is difficult to explain in words — a mixture of awe, tranquility and something almost spiritual. You're just in the moment.
Snowmobile safari — wind, speed and arctic expanses
If the Northern Lights are the quiet adventure, snowmobile safaris are the raw version. Nordic Safari offers tours that take you through some of Norway's most open and weather-beaten landscapes. Here you will feel both speed, wind and the endless white silence that can only be found in the far north.
The trails traverse snowy marshes, small rock formations, icy waters and areas where you can actually see the horizon curving. There's something special about sitting on a scooter, feeling the engine working and watching miles of nature unfold in front of you.
On some trips you will drive so far that you can glimpse both seas, valleys and snow-capped peaks in the same day. And you notice that this form of exploration fits the landscape -- it's big, open, honest.
Mehamn — a small place near the sky
Mehamn is a small coastal community on the far side of the Barents Sea. Just walking through the village gives you the feeling of being in a place where nature determines the rhythm, and humans have found their way to live with it. There are houses close to the wind, sounds from the sea, fishing boats, and the classic bang fresh air you only get up north.
Midnight sun in summer. Dark and magical light phenomena in winter. Quiet days. Small meetings. Great nature experiences. Mehamn is, in a way, both dramatic and calm at the same time.
A little adventure — as far north as you get
This is what makes Mehamn so special: you get the feeling of being on the edge of Norway. Whether you choose a snowmobile trip, a northern lights safari, a little stroll along the harbour, or just want to take in the silence — you will notice that this place leaves its mark.
Here you will have time to breathe out. Reflect. See lights you've never seen before, and landscapes that live in their very own way.
Next time you want to experience Norway — really experience it...
Go north. To Mehamn. Where the wind is cold, the light is wild, the horizon is vast, and every trip out feels a bit like an expedition and nature adventure.
Because in some places you don't have to do that much -- you're just in it. Mehamn is one of them.
