Witness the epic nature of Wild Scandinavia: orca, puffins and eagles rule the fjords; wolves and lynx patrol magical forests; polar bears and musk ox survive arctic extremes. Basejumpers and reindeer herders also embrace the wilderness.
Fire and Ice
Scandinavia’s northern extremes have been shaped by fire and ice, but it’s the sun that reigns supreme. Musk oxen, polar bears and arctic foxes endure the long polar night, but the sun’s return ignites a dramatic transformation and heralds the return of migrant visitors. Under the midnight sun, a sleepless rush of life and opportunity takes feverish hold, before the first signs of winter return.
Heartlands
In Norse mythology there are tales of a sacred tree at the center of the cosmos. Great forests are still at the heart of Scandinavia, stretching towards the Arctic and cut through with a maze of waterways. Across the seasons, this enchanted wilderness is home to lynx, bears, wolves and reindeer who survive through surprising and ancient alliances.
Life on the Edge
Wild and unpredictable, the Scandinavian coast is a place of haunting beauty and dangerous extremes; a 90,000 mile story from the Baltic Sea, through twisting fjords to the freezing Arctic Ocean. Stronghold of sea eagles and otters, orca and base jumpers, this coast’s natural riches have also sustained people for centuries. Only the tough and resourceful can carve out a Life on the Edge.
