Supposed hostility to life, long winters and short summers have created a unique natural environment by European standards. Giant reindeers, moose, musk ox, wolf, lynx and bears are at home in large parts of Scandinavia. Huge glaciers, countless lakes, deep fjords and endless forests are the hallmarks of this paradise. As is well known, the north is also the first address in Europe for anglers whether at sea, on the rivers or in the fjords.
