Lyngseidet

Few communities in Troms og Finnmark have a history as closely tied to travel and trade on Lyngenfjord as Lyngseidet. The administrative centre of Lyngen Municipality stands beside the fjord, at the foot of the Lyngen Alps, in a landscape defined by steep mountain slopes and Arctic water. The timber Lyngen Church, built in 1731, recalls the settlement’s long role as a local meeting place. Ferries from Lyngseidet to Olderdalen make it an important crossing point for journeys through northern Troms. Summer’s high Arctic light gives the waterfront a clear, expansive character, while winter brings snow, darkness and the possibility of northern lights.
