Arrive at Kirkenes

Upon arrival at the Kirkenes Airport, take the airport transfer to hotel and check in. Kirkenes means “church on a headland” and it sits between two ice-filled fjords, leading to the Barents Sea. This tiny, nondescript place, anticlimactic for many, has a distinct frontier feel. You'll see street signs in Norwegian and Cyrillic script and hear Russian spoken by trans-border visitors and fishermen, who enjoy better prices for their catch here than in their home ports further to the east.
