Extreme summers
The endless summer days have an invigorating effect on visitors and locals alike, creating a need to quench that thirst for thrills. Following in the footsteps of the legendary Englishman W.C. Slingsby as well as the local philosopher P.W. Zapfe, the very best climbers conquer the cragged mountains on the island of Kvaløya, as well as the towering peaks of the Lyngen Alps.
Other mistreat their mountain bikes to the extreme by pedalling up only slightly less challenging mountains. By comparison, setting off Mount Storsteinen, 421 metres above the city by paragliding, sliding down to the heart of the city, takes more courage than physics. Sea kayaking, river canoeing, riding and mountain trekking, however, are quite enough for most people.
Tromsø's situation amid some of Norway's most vertical topography invites you to challenge yourself, your mother and your insurance company for unforgettable thrills.
