Joffrey Maluski's account of his epic 25-day journey last year appeared on sidetracked.com.

...........................................
The Kaamos Road, 25 days and 1,500 km cycling in Lapland, at the heart of the polar night.
A winter bikepacking expedition across 3 countries in temperatures below -30°C.
After cycling across the Icelandic Highlands during the winter of 2023, the urge to explore the far North again became irresistible.
This time, the goal was clear: to experience and document the polar night, the Arctic winter where the sun never rises.
One year later, I set off on a cycling expedition through Lapland, spanning three countries: Norway, Finland, and Sweden.
An eastward journey, fully self-supported, deep into the polar night, where the sun never crosses the horizon and temperatures drop below -30°C.
Over 25 days and 1,500 km, I traveled across frozen landscapes, guided only by the subtle twilight.
A winter bikepacking adventure marked by long silent nights, solitude, extreme cold... but also by a rare, raw, and calming beauty.
With this film, "The Kaamos Road," I wanted to capture the delicate balance between effort and awe, exhaustion and serenity.
An ode to the slow rhythm of the polar night, and to the raw power of the Arctic.
