ON CLOUD NINE
National Geographic Traveller (UK)|October 2023
Scattered across the Arctic, in boggy moorland and on mountain slopes, the cloudberry appears for just a few weeks a year. It's so rare and precious, it's often called 'Arctic gold'. And, while it grows wild across the Arctic Circle and Norwegian Vesterålen archipelago, the specific locations where it thrives are a closely guarded local secret

ON CLOUD NINE

On the island of Andøya, a stream of locals walk and cycle down an unsigned dirt road, buckets in hand. Across the peatrich moorland, backed by the misty peak of Ørnlitnden, they hunt for the elusive golden cloudberry - known locally as molte or multe. They grow on single stems just a few centimetres from the ground and are sparsely scattered across the boggy land. Searching for them is a challenge, but it's also a tradition and an important summer activity for locals, who often take time off work during the short window of perfect ripeness. The tart berry is rich in vitamin C and antioxidants, providing important nutrients for people living in the harsh Arctic conditions.
