During the Winter season, Northern Nor-way is transformed into a magical winter paradise covered by snow. That’s why it is wonderful to spend a few days experiencing the cozy town of Tromsø also known as the door to the arctic. This vibrant metropole, and the largest city north of the Arctic Circle offers plenty of winter activities.

Tromsø offers good possibilities to see the Northern Lights also known as Aurora Borealis – October, February and March are the best months. Often you will see 3 green bands in the night sky, sometimes with a slight rose on the border and deep violet in the middle. During strong activity, the Northern Light can explore for a couple of minutes and take the form of a corona and in the next minutes it’s all over and you ask yourselves if you just witnessed an arctic illusion. Tromsø is easily accessible by Hur-tigruten , by air and train and bus. This is the perfect opportunity to combine and small city break and pick and choose which extra activities you want to experience – there is something for everyone!
