Tromsø

A compact city center with nature all around in the north of Norway

Tromsø is often called the “Paris of the North” and the “Gateway to the Arctic Ocean”. A beloved place, with many names. Surrounded by majestic mountains and with sea on all sides, it attracts outdoor enthusiasts from around the world. On a bike, you quickly get close to nature and have many great experiences to look forward to. With the city as a starting point, there are many opportunities for day trips and if you travel here during summer, it is so bright that you don´t want to go to bed.

The Tromsø Island has so much to offer – sea, beaches, hills, lakes, shops, museums and cafes. Add some great views of mountains all around and you will have a great day in Tromsø. Use the bike to see the main attractions like the Arctic Cathedral, the Cable Car “Fjellheisen” or the beautiful beach at Telegrafbukta. A longer daytrip to Ersfjordbotn takes you out of the city and to the picturesque fjord with a charming café. Watch out for reindeers on the road!

Be prepared of changing weather. This city is up north and it can be wind, rain and snow – all year. There are a lot of places to stay, eat and drink in this vibrant city, if you need to warm up. As this is a hub in northern Norway, it´s easy to travel around to explore other part with boats or buses.
