Journey to the end of the world
"Here I stand at Nordkapp, the extreme of Finnmark, at the very end of the world," said Franscesco Negri in the winter of 1664. Over 300 years later, Nordkapp has become a major destination. The mighty plateau rises 307 meters above the Arctic Ocean, and marks the end point of the European mainland.
