A guidebook to hiking in Norway north of the Arctic Circle, including the Lofoten Long Crossing in the region's south-west and the Finnmarksvidda in the far north-east. From 48-165km (30-103 miles) in length and taking between 4 and 10 days to walk, the trails cover mountain terrain and remote tundra and may cross residual snow at elevation, so are suitable for experienced hikers and backpackers.
