The Arctic circle is an imaginary line at 66N latitude. It marks the southernmost point where in the height of summer the sun never sets (midnight sun) and the height of winter experiences continuous darkness (polar night). Today we cross this line which is marked by another globe marker on Viking Island.
Midway along the coast is the city of Bronnoysund. It has the only church this far north built in 1830 out of stone, not timber.
Some 20 km out of town is Torghatten. This unique mountain has a hole through the middle of it!
