Why this option does not fit
Området norr om Dalälven
Dalälven lies far south of the Arctic Circle and does not mark the Arctic boundary used here.
Området norr om Umeå
Umeå is south of the Arctic Circle, so some areas north of the city are still outside the Arctic part.
Området norr om Östersund
Östersund is in Norrland but south of the Arctic Circle; Norrland and the Arctic do not have the same boundary.
