Description and Itinerary:
When visiting Tromsø, a guided hike offers an affordable and efficient way to explore the region. Whale Island is renowned for its breathtaking landscapes. Locals make the most of the snow-free season to venture out, and many families with children often make the trip.
This hike leads to the summit of “Brosmetinden.” Follow an easy trail along the cliffs with views of the Arctic Ocean. The package includes photography, information, and a guided hike. There are several rest stops along the way. You can see heather, mushrooms, and other plants, and sometimes even pick cloudberries. At the summit, there is a book where hikers can record their names and countries of origin.
The hike takes about 45 minutes to reach the top, with a similar duration for the return. Time will be spent at the summit to enjoy the view and absorb the scenery. The air is crisp, and there may still be some snow on the ground.
