Looking to run the Midnight Sun Marathon? Great idea, the Midnight Sun Marathon is easily one of the best marathons in Europe.
Traveling above the Arctic Circle and running at midnight provides a unique race opportunity unlike any other race.
Here are some of my favorite recommendations for what to do in Norway while preparing for the race.
- Take a hike up the Sherpatrappen. This 1200 step staircase offers amazing views of the city and is easily accessible if you don't want to rent a car.
- Take a nice walk around the Prestvannet hiking area. This pond is home to a wide variety of birds and offers nice views of the surrounding mountains from the highest point in Tromso proper.
- Travel to Senja. The island of Senja can be reached by car or with the Best Arctic hop on/hop off bus. I did an overnight in the small fishing village of Mefjordvaer staying at Mefjord Brygge. I did some hiking in that area, heading out from the Knuten Trail Head along the Skoyteneset Trail.
- Go for a midnight Kayak. Aside from running, I also spent a night kayaking with Active Tromso. This family run business offers amazing kayaking trips that take place in a Fjord about 30 minutes from Tromso.
