Heia: E6

4 69.14°, 19.05° S
About location

Built around the E6 transport corridor, Heia grew into a small settlement in the uplands of Målselv. It lies in Troms amid low, rounded hills, open scrubland and birch woodland, in an interior landscape beyond Norway’s coastal fjords. The Målselva river is a defining feature of the wider district. The E6 is Norway’s main north–south road, giving Heia a practical role for local traffic and longer journeys between the Tromsø area, Bardufoss and the northern interior. Bardufoss, a regional centre with an airport and the Norwegian Armed Forces’ Bardufoss Air Station, is the better-known focal point in this part of Troms.

Country Norway

Norway has served as a seafaring link between the North Atlantic and northern Europe since the Viking Age. Its long coastline is cut by fjords, while the Lofoten archipelago rises sharply from the Norwegian Sea and the mountains of Jotunheimen include Galdhøpiggen, Norway’s highest peak. Bergen’s Bryggen, the former Hanseatic wharf, recalls centuries of maritime trade. Farther north, Sámi culture remains an essential part of the country’s identity.
