Scenic Drive. Northbound: Part 14 - Burfjord to Alta
Hey everyone! Welcome to Part 14 of my epic road trip through Norway to the northernmost point of the continent – Nordkapp! ???? In this episode, we drive the stunning stretch from the cozy village of Burfjord in the Kvænangen fjord to the vibrant city of Alta – about 90 km along the iconic E6 highway, bathed in the June sunlight. Filmed in June, this leg showcases Norway’s polar day magic: lush green valleys, shimmering fjords, snow-capped mountains, and the vast expanse of the Finnmarksvidda plateau. ☀️ Shot on a GoPro mounted on the car’s roof, this video pulls you right into the driver’s seat! No music, just the raw sounds of the road: the hum of tires, a gentle breeze, and occasional whispers of Arctic nature. It’s the perfect ASMR driving experience for anyone dreaming of travel or craving a pure, vanilla road trip vibe. Get inspired for your own adventure! Cool facts about Alta and the region to spark your interest: Alta is the world’s northernmost city with over 10,000 residents and the capital of the Northern Lights. In June, the polar day means 24 hours of daylight – no sunsets here! The Alta Rock Carvings, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, date back up to 7,000 years, depicting the lives of ancient hunters and fishermen – a must-see for history buffs. The Altaelva River is a fisherman’s paradise. June is prime salmon season, attracting even the King of Norway! Burfjord, a quaint village with Sami and Kven roots, is surrounded by fjords and mountains, offering peace and authenticity. Finnmark is Norway’s largest and least populated region, where June brings blooming meadows and roaming reindeer along the roads. Fun fact: Alta is further east than most of Sweden, almost on the same latitude as Alaska! Give a thumbs-up if you’re ready for your own road trip! ????
