Deatnu

Deatnu, the great river of the Sámi, flows through the northern country to the Tana Fjord and the Barents Sea. Its valley is a centre of River Sámi culture, and the annual return of salmon has long sustained the communities along its banks. Known also as Teno in Finnish and Tana in Norwegian, the river links the inland tributaries with the coast, passing through a landscape of northern forests and open uplands.
