Haparanda is a city in Norrbotten, at Sweden's easternmost point. The Finnish town of Tornio is just across the Torne River. It is a great gateway to the wild north of Scandinavia.

Tornio is a city in Finnish Lapland, by the border to Sweden. Tornio is mostly a summer destination or a place to visit for extensive shopping. While it may be a good place to view the northern lights, many things are closed during the winter – without necessarily being advertised as such.
