Harstad, a picturesque and friendly little city is a good candidate, and here are some tips on where to go and how to do it.\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Harstad is immediately under the Northern Lights oval and enjoys maximum chances of spotting the northern lights. However, what do you do to maximise your chances of seeing the lights? That all depends on the time at disposal, how experienced you are at being out in winter and how adventurous you are. Here we have gathered some suggestions, ranging from easy things that can be organised on the spot to well-planned all-night adventures. Harstad sees very few Northern Lights tourists, so the number of organised tours is limited. Instead, the independent travellers can stage his or her own experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<div class=\"wp-block-vnn-gallery gallery-count-2\">\n\t\t<ul><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/003151_Frank-Andreassen_www.nordnorge.com_Harstad.jpg\" data-size=\"1200x800\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">01<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/003151_Frank-Andreassen_www.nordnorge.com_Harstad.jpg\" alt=\"The pink stripe is the lowest part of the Northern Lights \u00a9 Frank Andreassen\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/003151_Frank-Andreassen_www.nordnorge.com_Harstad.jpg\" data-caption=\"The pink stripe is the lowest part of the Northern Lights \u00a9 Frank Andreassen\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Arcticoncepts-Harstad-Keipen-campfire-northern-lights-view-foto-Elisabeth-Paulsen.jpg\" data-size=\"2400x1602\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">02<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Arcticoncepts-Harstad-Keipen-campfire-northern-lights-view-foto-Elisabeth-Paulsen-768x513.jpg\" alt=\"Northern Lights in strips towards Senja \u00a9 Elisabeth Paulsen\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Arcticoncepts-Harstad-Keipen-campfire-northern-lights-view-foto-Elisabeth-Paulsen.jpg\" data-caption=\"Northern Lights in strips towards Senja \u00a9 Elisabeth Paulsen\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><\/ul><div class=\"vnn-gallery-figcaptions\"><figcaption>01: The pink stripe is the lowest part of the Northern Lights \u00a9 Frank Andreassen<\/figcaption><figcaption>02: Northern Lights in strips towards Senja \u00a9 Elisabeth Paulsen<\/figcaption><\/div>\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Downtown is a good solution if you have little time<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cNonono, you can\u2019t see the lights in the city centre\u201d people are often eager to tell you. \u201cGet out of town\u201d. This is not untrue, but the effect of light pollution is often exaggerated. Often, one has limited time and not the right equipment to be out for too long. Then a walk around the city centre can be a good idea. You can do a nice walk around the waterside, from the Hurtigruten dockside, further along the catamaran dock and then along the Kulturhus (Culture House) to Harstadhavna. From there, go up past the Catholic church to the main church of Harstad. You can easily prolong the tour by making some detours into residential streets nearby. It\u2019s all safe and easy, and you can stop at bars and cafes along the way if you\u2019re cold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The path along the sea is easy and safe<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have more time and a little more sense of adventure, but lack the expedition gear, you do the path along the sea. From town, you walk towards Trondenes on a path along the sea. Party built on ramps, partly on ground, the path leads you out of the city centre and into residential areas. You meet dog walkers, joggers, and strollers. After half an hour you have reached the 13<sup>th<\/sup> c. church of Trondenes. The church itself is floodlit, and not a good place to wait, but there are plenty of small roads in the area with little traffic, so you can walk around a little bit. You can walk back the same way, but if<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"t2-featured-content-layout alignwide alignwide wp-block-t2-featured-content-layout\" role=\"list\">\n<div class=\"t2-featured-single-post

easy escape from the city centre is the Folkeparken forest area. This is a piece of natural forest just above the central areas. Before the snow settles in late autumn, there are plenty of paths crisscrossing the area. You can hardly get lost, and if you do, there will always be people there to point you the right way. In winter, many of the paths have been turned into cross country tracks. Of course, it\u2019s a big nono to walk in ski tracks, so stick to the areas where others have walked. If it has snowed half a metre the last 24 hours, we suggest you skip it altogether. The area is accessible on foot from downtown, but you can also be dropped off by a taxi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-vnn-map-route\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"map\" id=\"map-route-69ef9deba1bac\" data-point=\"[{&quot;lat&quot;:68.8010666,&quot;lng&quot;:16.5466842,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Harstad downtown&quot;,&quot;description&quot;:&quot;A walk around downtown is good if you have little time&quot;},{&quot;lat&quot;:68.8219295,&quot;lng&quot;:16.56292703281853,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;The path along the sea - Stien langs sj\\u00f8en &quot;,&quot;description&quot;:&quot;The path along the sea to the old church is an excellent evening walk&quot;},{&quot;lat&quot;:68.799424,&quot;lng&quot;:16.5208966,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Folkeparken - the city forest&quot;,&quot;description&quot;:&quot;Paths criss-cross the forest, and you&#039;re away from the city lights, but not way out there. &quot;},{&quot;lat&quot;:68.8569537,&quot;lng&quot;:16.3361652,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Keipen - the view mountain&quot;,&quot;description&quot;:&quot;Fabulous views, and an easy hike all year for the moderately sporty&quot;},{&quot;lat&quot;:68.9166169,&quot;lng&quot;:16.2623802,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Elgsnes&quot;,&quot;description&quot;:&quot;Beautiful viewpoint with free views to the north. &quot;},{&quot;lat&quot;:68.6790694,&quot;lng&quot;:16.0484582,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Kv\\u00e6fjord&quot;,&quot;description&quot;:&quot;A fjord surrounded by mountains, with different microclimates, good for chasing the northern lights by car. &quot;},{&quot;lat&quot;:68.954014,&quot;lng&quot;:16.6997419,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Bjark\\u00f8y&quot;,&quot;description&quot;:&quot;Historic island away from the city lights&quot;}]\" data-walk=\"false\" data-toggle-route=\"true\" data-zoom-northern=\"false\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"map-route-dropdown-content\">\n\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"map-route-title\">Where to look for the Northern Lights around Harstad<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t<p class=\"map-route-description\">Some points of interest for the independent Northern Lights hunter. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"map-route-dropdown is-hidden is-collapsable\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"map-route-dropdown-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t\t1\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"map-route-dropdown-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"map-route-dropdown__title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"map-route-dropdown__title-text\">Harstad downtown<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"map-route-dropdown__text\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\tA walk around downtown is good if you have little time\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"map-route-dropdown is-hidden is-collapsable\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"map-route-dropdown-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t\t2\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"map-route-dropdown-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"map-route-dropdown__title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"map-route-dropdown__title-text\">The path along the sea &#8211;

From the end of the road at Aunfjellet, you walk a couple of kilometres uphill on a usually well-trodden path. At the top, you have a great view towards the north and northwest, all the way to And\u00f8ya and Senja islands. If pre-booked, you can actually also go on an organised tour here with snowshoes and a guide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Elgsnes is the easy tour out of town<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Harstad has plenty of historic atmosphere. The red, 18<sup>th<\/sup> century manor house at Elgsnes is a lovely place to hang around and wait for the northern lights. From here, there is a view north to the monumental mountains on the island of Gryt\u00f8ya and further afield, the island of And\u00f8ya. This can easily be arranged with your own (rental) car, but there are also organised tours available.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<div class=\"wp-block-vnn-gallery gallery-count-2\">\n\t\t<ul><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Elgsnes_NorthernLights_JanSchmitt.jpg\" data-size=\"2400x1764\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">01<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Elgsnes_NorthernLights_JanSchmitt-2048x1505.jpg\" alt=\"A late autumn night, there are northern lights over the 18th c. farmhouse of Elgsnes \u00a9 Jan Schmitt\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Elgsnes_NorthernLights_JanSchmitt.jpg\" data-caption=\"A late autumn night, there are northern lights over the 18th c. farmhouse of Elgsnes \u00a9 Jan Schmitt\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\">\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Arcticoncepts-Harstad-Keipen-campfire-northern-lights-mountain-fjord-grilling-Elisabeth-Paulsen.jpg\" data-size=\"2400x1602\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"block-gallery-count\">02<\/span><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Arcticoncepts-Harstad-Keipen-campfire-northern-lights-mountain-fjord-grilling-Elisabeth-Paulsen-768x513.jpg\" alt=\"Northern Lights towards the sunset \u00a9 Elisabeth Paulsen\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Arcticoncepts-Harstad-Keipen-campfire-northern-lights-mountain-fjord-grilling-Elisabeth-Paulsen.jpg\" data-caption=\"Northern Lights towards the sunset \u00a9 Elisabeth Paulsen\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t<\/li><\/ul><div class=\"vnn-gallery-figcaptions\"><figcaption>01: A late autumn night, there are northern lights over the 18th c. farmhouse of Elgsnes \u00a9 Jan Schmitt<\/figcaption><figcaption>02: Northern Lights towards the sunset \u00a9 Elisabeth Paulsen<\/figcaption><\/div>\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Go northern lights hunting in Kv\u00e6fjord<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes the weather is just acting up. Snow showers dump their white cargo everywhere, and no clear skies can be detected. Then it\u2019s time to rent a car and go looking for it. On the western side of Harstad, the deep fjord of Kv\u00e6fjord almost cuts the island of Hinn\u00f8ya in two. Nestled between high mountains, one can be pretty sure to find a pocket of clear skies somewhere. The innermost part, Gullesfjord, is surrounded by towering peaks forming a perfect backdrop for the Northern Lights. Use one of the weather apps. If cloudy in Gullesfjord, make a foray into neighbouring L\u00f8dingen or towards the Raftsundet area in Vester\u00e5len, to the immediate west.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"t2-featured-content-layout alignwide alignwide wp-block-t2-featured-content-layout\" role=\"list\">\n<div class=\"t2-featured-single-post t2-featured-content is-post-type-artikler todo-archeology-and-early-history todo-culture-and-history todo-vikings season-autumn season-spring season-summer season-winter region-harstad malgrupper-bucket-list-betty malgrupper-local-insider malgrupper-nature-lover malgrupper-slow-traveller wp-block-t2-featured-single-post t2-featured-content-layout-col-6\" role=\"listitem\">\n\t\t<div class=\"default-card wp-block-t2-wrapper\">\n<a class=\"t2-post-link wp-block-t2-post-link\" href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/en\/artikkel\/follow-the-tracks-of-tore-hund-at-bjarkoy\/\">\n<div class=\"t2-post-dynamic-part is-source-filter filter-default_card wp-block-t2-post-dynamic-part\">\n\t\t<figure style=\"--t2-focal-point: 50% 50%;\" class=\"t2-post-featured-image has-image-ratio-16-9 wp-block-t2-post-dynamic-part\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/arvola-7-1-768x512.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\t\t<div class=\"card-content\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"card-region\">\n\t\t\t\tHarstad\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<h2>Follow the tracks of Tore Hund at Bjark\u00f8y<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"card-activities\">\n\t\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 640 512\" height=\"24\" width=\"24\" class=\"t2-icon t2-icon-activites\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><path d=\"M625.941 293.823L421.823 497.941c-18.746 18.746-49.138 18.745-67.882 0l-.36-.36L592 259.882 331.397 0h48.721a48 48 0 0 1 33.941 14.059l211.882 211.882c18.745 18.745 18.745 49.137 0 67.882zm-128 0L293.823 497.941C284.451 507.314 272.166 512 259.882 512c-12.284 0-24.569-4.686-33.941-14.059L14.059 286.059A48 48 0 0 1 0 252.118V48C0 21.49 21.49 0 48 0h204.118a47.998 47.998 0 0 1 33.941 14.059l211.882 211.882c18.745 18.745 18.745 49.137 0 67.882zM464 259.882L252.118 48H48v204.118l211.886 211.878L464 259.882zM144 96c-26.51 0-48 21.49-48 48s21.49 48 48 48 48-21.49 48-48-21.49-48-48-48z\"><\/path><\/svg>\n\t\t\t\tCulture and history\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div>\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"t2-featured-single-post t2-featured-content is-post-type-artikler todo-suggested-routes facilities-family-friendly facilities-sustainable-travel season-autumn season-spring season-summer season-winter region-alta region-hammerfest region-harstad region-lyngenfjord region-nordkapp region-northern-norway region-tromso malgrupper-local-insider malgrupper-slow-traveller wp-block-t2-featured-single-post t2-featured-content-layout-col-6\" role=\"listitem\">\n\t\t<div class=\"default-card wp-block-t2-wrapper\">\n<a class=\"t2-post-link wp-block-t2-post-link\" href=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/en\/artikkel\/take-the-boat-to-the-smallest-communities-in-troms-and-finnmark\/\">\n<div class=\"t2-post-dynamic-part is-source-filter filter-default_card wp-block-t2-post-dynamic-part\">\n\t\t<figure style=\"--t2-focal-point: 50% 50%;\" class=\"t2-post-featured-image has-image-ratio-16-9 wp-block-t2-post-dynamic-part\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"432\" src=\"https:\/\/nordnorge.com\/content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Catamaran-arriving-to-Seiland-pier-768x432.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\t\t<div class=\"card-content\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"card-region\">\n\t\t\t\tNorthern Norway\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<h2>Take the boat to the smallest communities in Troms and Finnmark<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"card-activities\">\n\t\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 640 512\" height=\"24\" width=\"24\" class=\"t2-icon t2-icon-activites\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><path d=\"M625.941 293.823L421.823 497.941c-18.746 18.746-49.138 18.745-67.882 0l-.36-.36L592 259.882 331.397 0h48.721a48 48 0 0 1 33.941 14.059l211.882 211.882c18.745 18.745 18.745 49.137 0 67.882zm-128 0L293.823 497.941C284.451 507.314 272.166 512 259.882 512c-12.284 0-24.569-4.686-33.941-14.059L14.059 286.059A48 48 0 0 1 0 252.118V48C0 21.49 21.49 0 48 0h204.118a47.998 47.998 0 0 1 33.941 14.059l211.882 211.882c18.745 18.745 18.745 49.137 0 67.882zM464 259.882L252.118 48H48v204.118l211.886 211.878L464 259.882zM144 96c-26.51 0-48 21.49-48 48s21.49 48 48 48 48-21.49 48-48-21.49-48-48-48z\"><\/path><\/svg>\n\t\t\t\tSuggested routes\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div><\/div>\n<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Explore the islands \u2013 and see the Northern Lights<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Another option if you have a car, is to go north to the island of Bjark\u00f8y.
