Great drive experience, beautiful scenery and impressive roads from Kilpisjärvi (Lapland, Finland) to Svolvær (Lofoten Islands, Norway) north of the Arctic Circle.

Kilpisjärvi (http://www.kilpisjarvi.org/en/) is the northwesternmost Lapland village in Finland, and the last village before the border of Norway close to the Arctic Ocean.

Svolvær is the main town and port of the Lofoten island group (http://www.lofoten.info/en) in Nordland county, Norway. Svolvær is a good starting point to explore the Lofoten archipelago.

The drive was about 450 km and 7 hours. It took place in March.
