New snowmobile and hiking tracks

Yesterday we drove out with our ATW to Gamvik, a village 20 minutes east from Mehamn. From Gamvik we went up to the mountains and made new snowmobile and hiking tracks. Now there are not many places on Nordkyn peninsula where you can’t hike  ore go with snowmobile.

The track can be tough

But also very beautiful!

Three groups drop-off at Cape Nordkyn

Early this morning went out with three boats to Cape Nordkyn to drop-off three groups that are going to hike up to the top and then walk the 23 kilometers of wild terrain back to the camp.
On the way out we stopped to take a look at the northern most house on the European mainland. There are only two ways of getting there, by boat ore a looong and tough walk


Here Vidar is at the shore to drop-off the first group
 the other two boats waits on their turn

Cape Nordkyn

This last week a couple visited Adventure Camp Mehamn with bicycle and attempted to hike to Cape Nordkyn. Up on the heights on the way to Cape Nordkyn there is a small stone desert that really takes the word hiking to another level. The hiking was more adventures than they could imagine but they manage to reach their final destination Cape Nordkyn in 12 hours.
