3 Best Sights in Senja, Northern Norway

Easily reachable from the road that runs along the coast, this scenic overlook offers the best views of the rugged and dramatic peaks that locals call the Devil's Teeth. It's accessible to everyone, with a boardwalk that accommodates strollers and wheelchairs. Nearby is a small beach where you can explore tidal pools and watch waves crash over the rocks. It can get crowded in summer but is worth a stop for the small picnic area and public toilets.

Open to the public in 1970 and expanded in 2004, this national park protects a wide swath of coastline in northern Norway. Thanks to preservation efforts, moose and other animals have returned to the area. You will find plenty of seabirds along the rocky coast, along with seals in the fjords and otters in the rivers. Transportation options are limited, so rent a car and then explore on foot. Bring a good pair of walking shoes.
