Slettnes lighthouse adventures

Slettnes Lighthouse is the northernmost mainland lighthouse of the world. Mehamn Vandrerhjem offers fantastic adventures at Slettnes. The lighthouse is located at the position N 710503 E 281310, the north-eastern part of the Nordkyn peninsula. Kinnarodden is the northernmost point of mainland Europe. The North Cape is on Magerøya Island.

By the first glance it seems that the area of Slettnes has spare vegetation. The lack of trees and bushes gives the impression of a dessert, but the flora is not by far as spare it seems. It is registered more than 350 different species of plants at Nordkyn. Experience the beautiful nature as you join one of our exciting activities at Slettnes lighthouse.
