Maybe expensive but the feeling of being there is awesome! We were there with terrible weather but the positive side was that we were the only ones at the globe :-)

During winter time you have to arrive before 11 a.m. going with convoy. Otherwise you won't allowe to go by yourselves. Road is frosty even if it's cleared continuosly. :-) The place is simply Great!

The place is a tourist trap which tends to ruin the beauty of the place. However the view is amazing and a great place to watch midnight sun. The parking/entrance price is a total rip-off.

Разбились до утра в палатке прямо здесь на парковке, WiFi Internet Free. Чудное место. Всем обязательно посмотреть фильм про Нордкап на -2 этаже, вход прямо за лестницей (идет в начале каждого часа)

В бегстве от жары добрался сюда) въезд 245 крон с человека, но внутри бесплатный wifi и много кафе и самое главное монумент земного шара, олицетворяющий самую северную точку Европы))
