The travel in pictures
The Paris - Cap Nord ….
Is the original idea of Philippe Boucher an independent director. The first raid was in 1988.
The raid is organised every two years.
Open to all, for any type of vehicle, it takes place during the period of the midnight sun. It's not a race against the clock; it's a photographic journey across some of the most beautiful Scandinavian scenery.

Photos will be judge during the raid and the final ranking will be revealed at the end of the raid, in Paris.
This isn't a race against time; everyone drives at their own pace. The aim is above all to discover the countries visited!
