The island of Arøya in northern Norway features an extensive network of World War II bunkers, part of the German Atlantic Wall fortifications built to control the strategic Lingenfjord.0:33 The island remained restricted by the Norwegian military until 2006 and is now uninhabited, accessible only by private boat.2:32 Visitors can explore the ruins and a memorial to Soviet prisoners of war, though the southern portion of the island is a nature reserve with restricted access during the bird breeding season.4:51 Nearby in Lyngen, the Aurora Spirit Distillery produces spirits under the Bifrost brand, aging products in repurposed Cold War NATO bunkers and a replica Viking longhouse.10:29 Due to Norwegian alcohol laws, the distillery cannot sell spirits directly to visitors; products are available only through state-owned Vinmonopolet stores.9:03 The crew of Polaris attempted to berth at the distillery’s pontoon but found it too fragile for their vessel, opting instead for a guest pontoon in Lyngseidet.8:00 The area also offers hiking, including a 7-kilometer ascent to the glacier lake Rotenvikvatnet.13:37
