Description

The Arctic Circle Center serves as a gateway to the Arctic Circle, which marks the southernmost point where the sun doesn't rise above the horizon during the winter solstice and doesn't set during the summer solstice. At the center, you'll find a range of fascinating exhibits and displays that showcase the unique wildlife, culture, and history of the Arctic. Learn about the indigenous Sami people and their traditional way of life, discover the diverse flora and fauna that call this region home, and gain a deeper understanding of the environmental challenges facing the Arctic. One of the highlights of visiting the Arctic Circle Center is the opportunity to cross the Arctic Circle itself. Stand with one foot in the Northern Hemisphere and the other in the Southern Hemisphere. There is a gift shop, restaurant and a cinema. You can also hike in the area.
