Places to Visit in Tromso

Discover a fantasy place with steep snowy peaks and dazzling seas by visiting Ersfjordbotn, which is only 30 minutes away from Tromsø. At the base of the beautiful Ersfjord, this charming town is the perfect place to enjoy nature and peace.

Experience the stunning beauty of the Tromso Fjords, where rocks rise dramatically from clear water and snow-capped peaks. On an organised boat tour through these fjords, you can see the rough shoreline and waterfalls that fall over rocks. Witness the magic of the midnight sun or the mesmerising Northern Lights as they light up the beautiful scenery. You can get a better look at hidden coves, secluded beaches, and faraway fishing towns by kayaking along the calm waters.

Experience a breathtaking view of Tromso and its beautiful surroundings from above, day or night. The Fjellheisen Cable Car takes you up Mount Storsteinen, where you can enjoy breathtaking views of Troms and the surrounding Arctic scenery. Convenience and scenic beauty come together at this well-liked destination in northern Norway. The cable car leaves from Solliveien in Tromsdalen and gets to Fjellstua, which is 421 metres above sea level, in just four minutes.

When you see the Arctic Cathedral in Tromsø, its one-of-a-kind style will amaze you. This work of art was created by architect Jan Inge Hovig using 11 smooth, aluminium-coated concrete pieces that make up its famous shape. The main entry has a large glass wall with a bold cross that you'll see as you get closer.
