What should I know about the Varanger Peninsula before traveling
Hey guys!
Due to my pending 3-week trip to the Varanger Peninsula in July, I have been gathering information on Google for months now. Sadly, there isn't a lot of information on the coast but rather on the inland. Google also mostly gives information that has been written by experts only, so I would like to ask the people who live there or have traveled there already. I will be camping near Batsfjord. I have already spent a lot on high-quality gear such as the Hilleberg Keron 4 GT. Does anyone have any tips on what I should definitely do on the coast, or maybe even fishing tips? Also, what are some things foreigners wouldn't expect when staying there? I am already thankful for any information I can get about the coast, even if they aren't related to the points I mentioned. The trip is basically a preparation for future trips to more remote locations in Alaska and Canada. Allthough visiting the area has been a dream of mine since a long time!
