Iceland yes, but Norway and Sweden usually have trees unless you're way up in the mountains.
I literally am right now so yeah. But i do agree most places have trees, but starting with mellannorrland there are highlands which are very barren. Its just that basically nobody lives here.
Norway as had a different policy than Sweden so we stil have a rural population. And spart from the really northern part we dont have that taiga "look"
The cartoonist Kellerman even comments on it when he is driving to Arjeplog from Norway how Norway is like Lord of the Rings and then when you get to Sweden it's Lilja4Ever
