From Lingen begins the so-called "northern country" of Nordland, whose political borders almost coincide with geographical ones. The ethnographic northern border in the Middle Ages was a little south of Lingen. This rugged terrain stretches in space a few degrees of latitude to the south, maintaining the same character everywhere. The mountains here have a height of mostly 1000-1800 m; their highest peak, Sulitjelma (1880 m), is on the Swedish border, with a large glacier.
