Saltfjellet–Svartisen National Park

Saltfjellet–Svartisen National Park (Saltfjellet–Svartisen nasjonalpark) is a national park in Nordland county in Norway. It is located within the municipalities of Beiarn, Meløy, Rana, Rødøy, Saltdal, and Bodø. The park forms the centrepiece of a larger protected area of about 2,839 square kilometres (1, 096 sq mi), which includes the adjacent Gåsvatnan and Saltfjellet landscape protection areas and four small nature reserves. Saltfjellet–Svartisen features diverse landscapes ranging from coastal regions to alpine plateaux, birch-covered valleys, and tundra, with Svartisen—Scandinavia's second-largest glacier at roughly 370 square kilometres (140 sq mi) occupying the southwestern corner. The park's calcareous bedrock supports a remarkably rich flora, while traditional Sámi reindeer husbandry continues within its boundaries. The European route E6 highway and the Nordland Line railway both follow the southern and eastern borders around the park.
