The seashore more than 2 thousands kilometers long is cut up by big and small fjord divided by mountain range, covered with snow and forest hills with picturesque rivers and lakes. Golfstrim flowing along the coastline formed the specific climate and ecosystem. We decided to talk about Norway according to 3 geographic regions and we mention the most appropriate fishing camp in each of them, because every region is exciting in its own way.
