In summer, when the sun hardly sets, there's a wealth of outdoor activities to choose from - and plenty of daylight hours in which to enjoy them: fishing for sea trout or river salmon, riding, sea kayaking, whale-watching, hiking or snowmobiling on the glacier-topped volcano that dominates the skyline.
