Hear the call of the wild and enjoy its beneficial powerThere are many kinds of natural environments and climates to be found on the northern roof of Europe. Although the region is as far north as Alaska and Siberia, the Gulf Stream keeps the climate milder. If you want to, you can travel from the northern coniferous forest zone via the tundra to the open waters of the Arctic Ocean in a single day.
A common feature of all of the different natural environments in our region is unpolluted water bodies and their well-preserved flora and fauna. The bounty that the clean northern environment yields remains the foundation of several natural livelihoods. In our continent’s largest national parks you can see the fascinating world of wild plants and animals. The riches concealed in the soil of the North have been the cornerstones of early cultures, so you too can try your hand at panning for gold in a stream or maybe find an amethyst with its curative properties
The Northernmost Europe nature tourism region contains numerous national parks and protected wilderness reserves. Find out more about them on the following pages.
