Knivskjelodden sett fra Nordkapp.

De fleste forbinder Mageryøa med Nordkapp og midnattsolen.
De ferreste tenker på, at Knivskjelodden faktisk er mere nordlig enn Nordkapp.
Du har nå muligheten for å se Nordkapp mod sør.
Parker ved N71° 07.317 E025° 42.456
og følg den ca. 8 km. lange rute merket med røde T´er ut til spissen av Knivskjelodden.
Det anbefales, at du medbringer ekstra tøy, da været kan være meget omskiftelig.
Husk også å sette GPS´en til og lage spor (track back).
Når du ankommer stedet, vennligst stå på stedet vist i spoilerbilde 1. Se nå nordover og du bør se noe veldig merkbart omtrent 15 meter unna.

Motsatt Nordkapp, skal det ikke betales entré og området er fri for masseturisme og souvenierboder.

English
Most people think of Mageryøa as the place of Nordkapp and the midnight sun.
Less people know, that Knivskjelodden lies farther north than Nordkapp.
You now have the possibility of seeing Nordkapp to the south.

Park at N71° 07.317 E025° 42.456
and follow the approx. 8 km long route marked with red T’s to the point of Knivskjelodden.
It’s recommendable to bring spare clothing, since the weather can change very quickly.
Also do remember setting up your GPS to save your Track Log.
When you arrive on site, please stand in the place shown in spoiler image 1. Now look north and you should see something very noticeable about 15 meters away.

Unlike Nordkapp you don’t have to pay entrance fees and the area is free of mass-tourism and souvernirshops.
