CR, how long are you thinking of going for?
Have done some interesting routes to places like Norway but they can be time consuming. Brendan |

Not Norway but close...
Our summer trip this year is to go to Sweden - by way of ferry from Harwich to the hook of Holland, Up into Gemany then into Denmark and over the long bridge in to Sweden. We've no fixed adgenda as we make it all up as we go a long. only deadline it the ferry back! We toyed with going all the way to Norway, but want to have a slow trip with lots of time to do photography and explore, so wil save that till next time!

Having been inspired (well the wife has been inspired) by the Northern Lights trip in LRO this month, is a trip up to the top of Norway feasable for end of March/early April or would there be too much snow.
What are the chances of actually seeing the Northern Lights? |
