Reisa

Reisa National Park (Norwegian: Reisa nasjonalpark) is a national park in Nordreisa municipality, Troms county, Norway that was established by royal decree on 28 November 1986. The park is full of wildlife. The Rough-legged Buzzard is the most common bird of prey, but hikers may also spot golden eagle, kestrels, and gyrfalcon. Wolverines and lynx live in the park and surrounding mountains. Since the Sámi name for part of the gorge, Njállaávzi, means arctic fox gorge, the arctic fox must have lived here a long time. The largest Norwegian predator, the brown bear, is occasionally seen in the park.
