Overview
The first part of our journey to Europe's extremes takes us to its borders where geographical and natural wonders await! We start at the oldest cliffs of the palaeocontinent Baltica in the Extreme North of Russia atop an ancient mountain now covered in water. From the Urals in the east to the forgotten Tabernas Desert in the west, volcanic landscapes with plants from every climate zone, dolphins and whales will amaze. Then, see how Iceland rose from the sea to become the "newest" part of Europe.
