Explore Tromsø on your own or with good friends and visit us during winter. If you are lucky enough to have a winter holiday, or are looking for a long weekend away, Tromsø offers a great combination of city life and nature experiences.
Enjoy urban cafés and restaurants, join a guided brewery tour, and taste local food and drinks. Breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner are all within easy reach, whether you are spending the day shopping or enjoying outdoor activities. Take a refreshing dip in the sea followed by a sauna at Pust, visit Tromsøbadet, go skiing on Tromsøya or walk along the waterfront to the southern end of the island and Telegrafbukta.
Along with plenty of fresh air, Tromsø has exciting museums and experience centres, as well as attractions such as the Arctic Cathedral and the Cable Car. Learn more about Northern Norwegian culture and history at Perspektivet Museum, Northern Norwegian Art Museum and other museums and attractions around the city.
If you are looking for more action, the Tromsø region and nearby areas offer excellent opportunities for ski touring. Kvaløya, Lyngen and Senja are all well known for their mountain landscapes and ski-touring opportunities. Weather, snow and avalanche conditions can change quickly, so always check the current forecasts before heading into the mountains. If you are unfamiliar with the region or Arctic mountain conditions, we strongly recommend joining a guided tour with a qualified local guide.
Go sea fishing, try dog sledding or reindeer sledding, discover Arctic wildlife or head out on a snowmobile tour. Join a RIB tour or a guided kayaking trip and experience the Arctic coast from the water before ending the day at one of our city hotels. You can also stay in cabins or traditional fishermen’s cabins by the sea or in the mountains. See all our accommodation options here and book your next adventure here.
We hope to see you for your next winter holiday in Tromsø!
