Nordkapp, Information and images

  • 71 ° 10 ´21 ´, these coordinates are the destination of a long journey.. On the yellow concrete slab at the entrance to the Nordkaphallen they document that you have arrived at the northernmost point of Europe, but this is not quite correct, because the most geographically northern point is located about 4 km further west at N 71 ° 11 ´08 ´and O 25 ° 40´33 ´on the Knivskjellodden headland. <9> <9> The North Cape is situated on the island of Magerøya, which is connected to the Norwegian mainland by a 6870 m long tunnel under the Magerøyasundet, up to 212 m below sea level the longest underwater tunnel in the world, with no alternative if you want to get to the North Cape on the European route E 69. Before the opening on 15 June 1999, there was only the ferry connection from Kåfjord, a small town a few kilometers from the tunnel, To Honnigsvåg Since 01. 07. 2012 the tunnel is toll-free. <9> <9> A few hundred meters before the North Cape at the entrance to the large RV parking lot a relatively high fee is payable, the allerdi. The stay for two days and the free visit of the Nordkaphallen included.. Built in 1988 from large boulders and expanded in 1997, the four-storey building complex has various facilities and attractions, such as. B. <9> • Visitor Center, <9> • Cinema with 5 projectors, in which a multi-vision show on the 225 ° panorama screen tells the story of life on the island of Magerøya during the Four Seasons, <9> Norway´s largest souvenir shop, <9 > • northernmost post office stamped with the special cancellation ´Nordkapp - 71 ° 10 ´21´, <9> • St. John´s Chapel, the world´s northernmost ecumenical chapel, <9> • Thai Museum as a souvenir the North Cape visit of the King of Siam (now Thailand) in 1907, <9> • Grotto Bar, <9> • ´North Cape Suite´ 71 ° 10 ´21 ´, a popular venue for wedding arrangements below the white ball on the north cape.. <9> <9> Opening hours of the Nordkaphallen: <9> 01.. 01. - 30. 04.: 12. 30 - 14.00, 01. 05. - 31. 05.: 11. 00 - 15. 00, <9> 01.. 06. - 31. 08.: 11. 00 - 01. 00, 01. 09. - 15. 10.: 11. 00 - 15. 00, <9> 16.. 10. - 31. 12.: 12. 30 - 14 00 <9> <9> However, the greatest attraction is the North Cape Globe, a world globe made of steel on the 307 m high cliff of the Barents Sea.. At midnight, several hundred to a thousand people gather here every day to enjoy the special atmosphere of the midnight sun, to admire the golden-brown cliffs on the north side, and to capture the visit with a proof photo, unless a wall of smoke thwarts the bill makes.. <9> <9> Another attraction is the sculpture ´Children of the Earth´, which is located on the North Cape Plateau in front of the North Cape.. Seven children from different parts of the world created the reliefs in 1989, symbolizing friendship, cooperation, hope and joy across all borders.. From the donations, a prize is awarded annually to a facility or project around the world to improve the living conditions of children in need.. <9> <9> The target is reached: <9> <9> <994/1699007> The Globe at the North Cape, <994/1699009> Sculpture ´Children of the Earth´, <994/1699011> The Midnight Sun <9> < 9> Hike to Knivskjellodden, the most northerly point: <9> <9> About 6 km south of the North Cape, a 9 km long hiking trail leads from a parking lot on the high plateau to the most northerly point in Europe, the Knivskjellodden promontory.. From here you have a wonderful view of the North Cape in good weather.. <9> This walk should take about 6-7 hours.. What can not be missing in any case, are fixed hiking boots and rain gear.. Also, a hiking map and a compass can be very useful, because the weather changes very quickly here and in case of unexpected fog, it is important to find the way back.. <9> <9> Further information on the Internet: <9> <1001> Wikipedia - Nordkap} <9> <1002> Knivskjellodden - the northernmost point} <9> <1003> Nordkapp Reiseliv AS, your official guide to the North Cape} < 9> <1004> Hurtigruten} <9>
