Join us as we head north, approaching the Arctic regions and set sail for some incredible, remote places. We visit the area of Helgelandskysten, a beautiful area with thousands of islands that make for some thrilling places to explore. We take the ferry to the island of Seløya and Træna, including an expedition to the tiny island of Sanna, home of the captivating Kirkhelleren. This massive cave is now used in the famous Trænafestivalen, but historically it has been used as a graveyard, animal shelter, gathering point etc. Enjoy this episode, remember to watch it in 4K for the best experience.

[@SimonBraeck]

Thanks Ryan🤙🏼 Quite a place, ehh? I hope you enjoyed Europe this summer!

[@aaronwoods6717]

You Guys are Killing it these videos just keep getting better 🤙

[@SimonBraeck]

Thanks Aaron! I appreciate you following along!

[@equinoxefr75]

Thanks for those awesome videos, kudos for those beautiful landscapes and your filmmaking skills ! Cheers from France. Now I have to visit Norway 😂

[@SimonBraeck]

Thank you! Norway is waiting for you👏🏼

[@Adventure_MT]

Great video. Some of your best work. Looking forward to the next episode.

[@SimonBraeck]

Thank you very much👏🏼☺️

[@JesusistheOnlyWay222]

Hello! Have you a video/trip to Ofotfjord at all? I've a friend there :) new sub :)

[@SimonBraeck]

[@JosephPuplava]

Hahaha!!! That middle 🖕!!! She caught him at the right moment of expectation. That big cave is an amazing adventure! Lucky you! I was hoping that he would not say the old time Vikings! His wife will roll her glassballs.

[@SimonBraeck]

Exactly, that was a bad moment for me😄 Another stunning place we stumbled upon, so random to find such gems in the middle of nowhere.

[@ibee7823]

That place is insane! I've travelled to northern Norway a couple of times and one great thing about living in Finland is that it's so close to Norway ;) It's funny to think that we have 2 neighboring countries which are yet so very different. You have an amazing country and I love to visit there every year.

[@samamos7204]

Planning on a trip to Northern Norway in my T3 Summer 2023, what are these islands like to get to? In the UK places like this would be rammed with tourists!

[@SimonBraeck]

They are fine, Træna is not that well know to be honest. Except for when the festival is hosted, there will be huge crowds that weekend!

[@claretbuck1882]

Awesome guy's Norway is stunningly beautiful 👌🏻

[@SimonBraeck]

Thanks! This must have been one of the highlights of this trip! :)

[@bluewendytube]

Great, another slice of escapism with you! More stunning scenery, a fabulous visual feast and that pizza did look tasty.

[@SimonBraeck]

It was worth sharing, even though pizzerias are a rare sight on this channel. Thanks for watching😊

[@teijaalanko5165]

Norway its Beautiful country. I like the Lofoten Islands..fantastic. 💕💚🌏🍮.you too like..byee, from Finlands.👋🏔🌅🎼🎼🍃🌹. Thank you this you filmin. Very good.

[@Van-Diesel]

[@SimonBraeck]

Haha, so many places to see and explore! This are was really special, hope you get to see it too :)

[@isparshmehta]

[@SimonBraeck]

Awesome, I can only imagine the atmosphere on those concerts. Haha, maybe one day😂

[@jajamame]

Very beautiful, those are the appropriate words. greeting Jan

[@SimonBraeck]

Thanks Jan😊👏🏼

[@pyronitro]

i Think this video with the Sauna proves that Benedikte is a True warm blooded Norge. Simon...not as a warm. :)

[@Mikeandtheboys]

Great Video 👍🏻

[@SimonBraeck]

Thank you👏🏼

[@miguelalgarra3285]

Jeg besøkte både Træna og Sanna med marinen i 98. Vi var på radarstasjonen på toppen av fjellet der.

[@tanmingjie9350]

Watching your videos makes me miss travelling! Keep it up! Cheers from Singapore!

[@SimonBraeck]

Thank you so much :) Add it to your travel list!

[@СтёпаиЕва]

You are so cool! Every time I get enjoy, when see you trip-movie! May be one day I can see Norway.

[@akshitchoudhary8532]

U guys are just awsome.

[@SimonBraeck]

Thank you☺️☺️

[@isparshmehta]

And we are blessed with another video from Norway ❤️❤️❤️✌️ #vakker🇳🇴🇳🇴

[@SimonBraeck]

Thank you very much! What a wonderful country, right? :D

[@anjaliparanjape9582]

Very Beautiful Destinations 👍 Simon at end of the Vedio why was VW pushed ?

[@igorbuk2404]

Hi. You need comfortable seats to ride for that long. From which car do you have

[@dutchglobetrotter6464]

So beautiful! Thanks for sharing guys.

[@SimonBraeck]

Our pleasure! Thank you

[@EinarSkaug]

Jepp, må dra dit. Sykt fett.

[@SimonBraeck]

Fort gjort med en blodtrimma buss😊

[@sjors9110]

What a beautiful place is Norway, trying to convince my wife to visit it the next year!

[@igorbuk2404]

Thank you very much for the absolutely enchanting tour, it was very informative, tasty and joyful! I really hope that someday I will be able to get these feelings.

[@designwall8169]

Just finished this short film. Enjoyed every second of it. No words to say. Thank you guys for bringing them for us. Can't wait for the one. Stay Safe.

[@supercontesergio]

what beautiful feelings in this land and in your videos ... keep going and thanks from italy

[@SimonBraeck]

Thank you very much☺️

[@mmwaashumslowww7167]

Fantastic!

[@SimonBraeck]

Thanks👏🏼👏🏼

[@larrymoore4223]

I don’t see how you guys don’t have over 100k subscribers. Your videos are amazing and beautiful. Thank you for sharing them with us.

[@SimonBraeck]

Thanks Larry!! Maybe one day😄

[@avocadopunch]

hi, what product do you use to style your hair? thank you!

[@arkadiuszstempien3890]

Best regards from Poland....🇵🇱👍😀

[@SimonBraeck]

Thank you!

[@GermanKorb]

Beautiful islands! Really enjoyed discovering up north. Oh no, the van is acting up again?

[@blackdogwildtrails3123]

Loving these vlogs. Amazed at your filming and editing! The only thing I would say. When you periodically put text in the corner of the screen, it's too small to read. Even on a 32" TV. I'm not sure what I'm missing with this information but I'm sure it must be interesting.

[@SimonBraeck]

Thank you for watching and for leaving the feedback😊👍🏼

[@adiheina8733]

Great trip reports. I also drive a VW T3 myself and am thrilled by your tours. So cool. Thank you very much. May I ask what rims and tires you have on your 2WD VW T3? Does that go well on offroad routes?

[@SimonBraeck]

Thank you😊 We currently have the stock 14’ wheels with some generic tires. It works well on gravel and easy sandy roads, haven’t really pushed them that much. I’m considering switching them out for 15’ alloys with some all terrain tires, both because they look cool but also for a more stable ride (according to wheel pundits online…)

[@seeyou1812]

OK, now I need to visit Norway.

[@vaib.shfilms]

This is why we love norway as well

[@nexttimenorth3353]

Great video. I Need to visit this places once in Lifetime. Thanks for sharing. Epic style of filming . Thanks and looking forward to your Next ones😎👍 Rgds from North Germany

[@SimonBraeck]

Thank you! Luckily I still have footage from this trip so more videos still to come☺️

[@msaeteurn1]

What month was this trip taken?

[@martinjones2397]

Great video given me a real boost after catching Covid on Sunday the day before my 50 birthday I will make it to your beautiful country in my camper.

[@SimonBraeck]

Good luck and I wish you a speedy recovery! Norway is waiting for you🇳🇴

[@dholter2]

What a great birthday treat! A new video from one of my favorite KZbin channels! Thanks for another beautiful look at Norway!

[@SimonBraeck]

Hey, thanks! Happy birthday🥳

[@dholter2]

@@SimonBraeck Thanks, Simon! - Dave

[@heimaufreisen]

Wow beautiful Drone Shots and we have made some more placec on our bucket list for our next norway adventure. Thank you

[@abo7amad34]

🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹👍

[@designwall8169]

Thank you so much. This is awesome. I was waiting for a new video. It felt like years. :). By the way, thank you for adding a map of where you are.

[@SimonBraeck]

Thank you👏🏼 Sure thing, I try to listen to comments on my videos😊

[@monicabredenbekkskaar1612]

I love my country❤

[@shelekhov]

Amazing stuff! Love the names of places included! The font is a bit small to read, if you check the youtube stats, too many people still watching on mobiles :)

[@SimonBraeck]

Thanks man :) It's esthetics, haha. I doubt this will ever be a big channel, so I prefer to show it in a beautiful way that should be enjoyed on a big 4K screen

[@Hello_bus]

Wow so beautiful!😍 Awsome video! Thanks from Sweden!

[@SimonBraeck]

Thank you! This area really impressed us :)

[@djamalyoutube230]

Magical. 👍💛

[@b.b.3820]

The videos are just as great as the Norway Guide! I really enjoy your content. Keep it up and good luck!

[@SimonBraeck]

Thank you so much👏🏼😊

[@isparshmehta]

May i know the name of the game u were playing with those multiple dices ?

[@SimonBraeck]

Sure, it’s called Qwixx😊

[@chellammanish800]

We love Norway ❤️

[@davidchase7166]

Stunning as usual guys. Norris obviously didn't want to leave the island :)

[@SimonBraeck]

Exactly, starting to act up when we try to leave😂

[@bmarie8939]

Hi there from Sacramento, California. OMG. North Norway is on top of my bucket list. And the places you are visiting are some of the places I desperately want to go to!! I am your new subscriber.

[@grast961]

Once more we are treated to the fantastic views of northern Norway’s islands. Thank you. Such a shame that there seem to be no direct ferries to Norway from the UK.

[@SimonBraeck]

You’re most welcome! That’s true, would like to take one towards the UK!

[@kirstenmc68]

Stunning! How does it work with all the ferries? Do you get some sort of pass to use them all?

[@SimonBraeck]

Thank you! They read your number plate when boarding and you get the bill digitally. So you end you end up paying for each trip basically.

[@thenoworriesnomad]

Superb. 👍👍

[@ericpelkey2788]

WOW This place is amazing. You are doing great on KZbin. You always have great storytelling and cinephotographic videos Love the road trips Now so many places i got to take family.

[@douglaslosey6501]

Excellent video!!! This may be favorite in the series so far!

[@SimonBraeck]

Thank you Douglas😊

[@RobandTamsin]

Aaah, the old window winder break. Did that at the start of a road trip and spent the rest of it passing the unbroken one between passenger and driver sides. Great video, keep up the good work!

[@osamabuabbas7144]

What can i say more than the viewers said and wrote. All i can say both of you on the road of success and making people around the world to enjoy nature and Norway. Both of you are perfect couples 👩‍❤️‍👨

[@sgraffrn]

What a beautiful trip! Shared wonderfully!

[@SimonBraeck]

Thanks😊

[@mayashein4608]

How is it possible to get to Sanna with a motor home?

[@SimonBraeck]

It's not possible, Sanna is only served by a passenger boat.

[@henrikm4657]

Unreal beauty! What’s that building that was seen on top of one of the mountains? It looked like there was a road leading up to it.

[@tonyclark9392]

You keep adding more and more places to my Norway list for when we finally get over in the van. Think I'm going to need a few months to do them all. Best video yet.

[@camillaholst7321]

Honestly: this video left me speechless and with happy tears in my eyes 🏆❤ It's also "a ten out of ten"!!! 🎯

[@thomas22az]

Amazing filming! Love all your videos! Greetings from Belgium!

[@akshitchoudhary8532]

Love ❤u

[@SimonBraeck]

❤️❤️

[@frpaddy]

Wonderful video!

[@olejacobstalesen6558]

That parting shot looked none too good, I was going to ask how the new engine had worked out, and if there were improvements on mileage(less diesel/more beer). Stunning places you get to! Making me all kinds of itchy for a proper road trip - what a country we have!

[@SimonBraeck]

I’ll get back to that in a future video, it usually turns out okay. Keep addinf places to your list, it will be very long eventually 😃
