Fossbakken

Fossbakken is best known within Troms for its position in Salangsdalen, the valley followed by the Salangselva river. This small inland settlement lies among the broad, forested valleys of southern Troms, where roads connect fjord communities with the interior around Bardu. The setting is markedly different from Norway’s better-known coastal routes: long winter seasons, open valley floors and mountain slopes shape everyday life here. Fossbakken is a useful point from which to understand the transition between Salangen’s fjord country and the inland landscape. Browse nearby webcams to see how Fossbakken relates to southern Troms.
