In the north-west of the European continent, Norway extends over a length of around 1,700 kilometers. The country is characterized by mountains and fjords, it is almost entirely covered by the Scandinavian mountains. The distinctive surface modeling is mainly due to the glaciation during the Ice Ages and the associated erosion, to which the country was repeatedly exposed over the course of two and a half million years. The traces of this turbulent geological past are still visible today, especially in the west. There are prehistoric glaciers like the Folgefonna, countless crystal clear mountain lakes, trough valleys and dizzying peaks. In the heart of the mountains lies Hardangervidda, the largest plateau in Europe above the coniferous wood border, with its barren heather and tundra landscapes, lakes, white water and moors.
