Exploring Scandinavia
The subtitle “The Great Travel Book” more than lives up to its promise. Readers are first introduced to striking images from the four Scandinavian countries of Denmark, Norway, Sweden and Iceland. The section “The Most Beautiful Destinations” lovingly describes exactly what travelers to the Nordic countries hope to find. A separate section introduces the countries’ national parks, followed by suggested itineraries. The final map section saves readers from having to buy a road map.

The Most Beautiful Destinations
Combining evocative descriptions, visually striking photographs and informative background details, this 260-page book tells readers virtually everything they need to know about Scandinavia’s most beautiful destinations. It covers world-famous places such as Denmark’s Wadden Sea and the islands of Bornholm (Denmark) Öland and Gotland (Sweden), as well as Norway’s Lofoten Islands and Svalbard. Many lesser-known destinations and regions are also featured.
National Parks
Denmark also has protected areas of this kind, including the northernmost island of Thy. The national parks in Norway and Sweden are found mainly in the north of Sweden and in coastal or mountainous regions of Norway. In Iceland, Vatnajökull volcano is among the sites featured.
The Most Beautiful Itineraries
The book features a tour of Denmark, an extended circuit through Denmark and southern Sweden, Norway’s Hurtigruten coastal voyage, Norway’s mountains and fjords, and Iceland’s paradise of fire and ice. The sights along each route are also described.
Travel Atlas
