Question 1: We’re at Jotunheimen National Park for European Day of Parks. Where is it?
- Norway
- Sweden
- Finland
Answer: Norway
Fact: Jotunheimen National Park, spanning approximately 444 square miles in southern Norway, is home to more than 250 peaks rising above 6,000 feet. Its name, meaning “Home of the Giants,” references the legendary Jötnar from Norse mythology. The park is a popular destination for hikers, climbers, and those seeking rugged, untouched landscapes. Initiated in 1999 by the EUROPARC Federation, European Day of Parks highlights protected areas like Jotunheimen, where natural beauty and mythological heritage continue to define the experience.
Question 2: Which is the highest peak in Northern Europe?
- Galdhøpiggen
- Store Skagastølstind
- Glittertind
Answer: Galdhøpiggen
Fact: Galdhøpiggen, Norway’s highest peak at 8,100 feet, provides sweeping views of nearby mountains and glaciers. It was first climbed in 1850 by Steinar Sulheim (a guide), Ingebrigt Flotten (a church warden), and Lars Arnesen (a local teacher). Today, it attracts many hikers, with popular routes starting from Spiterstulen and Juvasshytta. The Juvasshytta route includes a crossing of the Styggebreen glacier, which usually requires a guide.
Question 3: Which Norse god is known for mischief and shapeshifting?
- Balder
- Heimdall
- Loki
Answer: Loki
Fact: Loki is far from a typical Norse god. Unpredictable and frequently shifting allegiances, he never fully aligns with the other gods. His actions play a pivotal role in Norse mythology, particularly in Ragnarok, where he transforms from an ally into an adversary, triggering the events that lead to the gods’ ultimate battle.
