Arrived at Kautokeino in the evening. Sun was shining warm. Best start you could wish for. A few kilometers into the trail I made friends with a Dutch guy that I had seen on the bus already and nowЧитать далее
Schön. Endlich kann ich dir folgen, glaub ich zumindest. Hab wieder meine Probleme. [Tr]

I hike together with Bas from the Netherlands. He’s clearly faster than me and probably is annoyed of the waiting already. Mix of sparse birch forests (cute) and then later kalfäll. Quite some upsЧитать далее

That's nice, an old-fashioned notice board for people like me, who don't have a smartphone!
PositivDenken It was the first mention of „Nordkalott-Ruta“ in Norway. Looks like an abandoned trail.

Wanted to take it slow since everything hurts. Slept 11 hours. Still woke up early. Amazing morning in the sun. Bas says goodbye. I was slowing him down too much and he’s in a hurry. Good for me. SoЧитать далее
Путешественник Why is everybody in such a rush? And I already thought that YOU are fast!

Slept 12 hours. At some point winds must have stopped. It was raining all night. Lots of condensation on my sleeping bag. But rain has mostly stoped now so I start quite early.

Breaking News: Climate Change transplants rainforest into the Arctic Circle.
PositivDenken I think that’s just what makes that valley so special. It’s got it’s own micro climate.

Made my way out of the Reisa valley. It was demanding to say the least. The opposite of what I had expected. It’s an amazing valley with vegetation you just wouldn’t expect up there. And the trailЧитать далее

Rained all night on and off. Still a lot of fog. My sleeping bag looks a lot better but again got lots of condensation by the foot end and so it’s wet there again. Another *popp* in the morning toldЧитать далее

Made it all the way to Saarijärvi. Toughest part was the river crossing where the bridge has been destroyed. It’s a long stretch with large boulders submerged under water and slippery like hell.Читать далее

Kilpisjärvi, where I want to resupply and take a zero. Bas is waiting to go for lunch (all you can eat pizza buffet!!!) but first I need a place to stay. Easier said than done. All beds and rooms atЧитать далее

That's an impressive mountain there! I can understand why it's holy, reminds me of the Uluru/Ayers Rock in Australia.

Had a zero yesterday. Now my backpack is heavy again. Not much of a joy. The stretch to the Northern part of Kilpisjärvi is tiresome. Tiresome just like pretty much everything this day. There’s aЧитать далее
PositivDenken Usually I’m not interested in churches but this one is just too fancy.
