Explore West Cape

Settle in and enjoy an immensely panoramic drive across the sparsely populated West Cape, an area little changed over the centuries. You will take in one spectacular view after another as you travel along the wild, rocky coastline to the westernmost point on mainland Norway. Its flat-topped seaside mountain provides stunning views in all directions, especially from the clifftops. The weather and seas there are notorious for changing at a moment’s notice. That’s the beauty of this pristine location; you never know what you will encounter or how long before the scenery dramatically changes. A bit further down the coast, you will find a cluster of homes overlooking Selja beach. This magical setting attracts surfers worldwide as the powerful seas often produce ideal waves.
