North Cape, Europe's northernmost promontory is a lunar landscape of treeless tundra and crumbling mountains. A tunnel in the visitor's center leads to a cave with panoramic views of the Arctic Ocean.
The plateau on the North Cape Rock - 307 meters above the sea - marks the northernmost corner of Europe. The majestic cliff formation representing the final frontier to the Arctic Ocean has long been a destination for both adventures and royalty. ![North Cape picture](/file/14429/K_CD_6_99.ISO/Web/NORDKAP/WWWNOR~1.COM/IMG/NORDKA~1.JPG)
Out on the promontory of the North Cape cliff stands the Globe. This monument naturally provides a photo opportunity. To bee pictures with the Globe, perhaps with the midnight Sun in attendance, is positive proof that one has visited North Cape.
