Varangerfjord

The Varanger Fjord (Norwegian: Varangerfjorden; Sami: Várjjatvuotna ) is a fjord in the northernmost Northern Norway, which flows into the Barents Sea in the Arctic Ocean. The fjord is approximately 90 km long and 55 km wide at the mouth. He reaches up Vadsø in the north. In the outer part of the south branch off several fjords, including the Bugøyfjord, the Kjøfjord, the Bøkfjord to Kirkenes and the Jarfjord. In Kirkenes the Paatsjoki, one of the northernmost rivers of Europe, in the fjord opens. On the northern bank runs over Vardo to Vadsø the European Route 75; in the inner part to the south leads the E6 to Kirkenes.
