The location of Evenes is great for any experienced drivers to get to grips with some beautiful scenic drives. Car hire from Evenes will give you scope to skirt the mountain ranges in the area, the Niingen mountain is east of Bogen village, with a great bay to spend the day at. Norway's landscapes are filled with mountain ranges and lakes, so your drive around the area will be populated with these. Hiring a car in Evenes, history fans should take the drive out to Evenestangen just along the coast, to see the World War Two fortifications which are still in place.
An excellent place to make time for in your trip is the Trollkirka (the Troll Church), which is a large cave. If hiring a car in Evenes, make sure you bring a day's essentials for hiking and make your way to the caves. There are tours available but should you be agile enough, exploring them yourselves could uncover some hidden gems. The coast is also home to the Stone House by artist Bjørn Nørgaard which is part of the bigger art installation project, Artscape Nordland, essentially aiming to bring art across Nordland, it's currently spread across 32 municipalities.
