Hotels in Troms, Norway
Tromsø sits 200 miles north of the Arctic Circle in Norway, famous for its Northern Lights from September to March and midnight sun from May to July. Winter temperatures average 20°F (-6°C), perfect for reindeer sledding through snowy valleys or chasing the aurora on guided tours, while summer's 50°F (10°C) allows kayaking in the fjords and hiking up Storsteinen mountain for views of the Tromsø Bridge. If you visit between October and April, you can also join whale-watching trips targeting orcas and humpbacks around the Kvaløya coast, or catch live jazz at the historic Tromsø Cathedral during the January Jazz Festival.
