Breathtaking Panoramic Views Cabin - Secluded / fire pit / ideal for aurora

Immerse yourself in stunning Norwegian alpine wilderness. Stay in a breathtaking lakefront cabin with magnificent panoramic views in the Lyngen Alps only 45 minutes drive from Tromsø. Picturesque setting for Northern Lights or midnight sun experience. Located in the "Aurora Belt" and away from lights presenting ideal opportunity for Northern Lights viewing . Extensive opportunities for activities both summer and winter: Hike directly from the property, including to a glacier, boat included for free on Laksvatn lake, fishing, skiing.

A recent travel vlog was done on YouTube about our cabin. Search for a video called 'AURORAS in Tromsø by a channel called Nature4U.

The location is fantastic near many Lyngen Alps attractions. In the winter, you will enjoy spectacular Northern Lights from your own private alpine plateau and from a large window in the living room of the main cabin.

The space consists of a main cabin with two bedrooms, a kitchen and a bathroom. A second smaller cabin consists of a living room, bedroom and a kitchenette is included. There is also an additional outside toilet and a room for drying clothes and boots. Guests have access to the entire space (all three buildings in the pictures). The cabins have electric heating. The main cabin also has a wood burning stove.

The main cabin is well equipped and has WiFi with unlimited access. One free firewood bundle for outdoor camp fire during season.

October 2023 Update: We installed a water well system and a new bathroom remodel. Now there is hot water year round at the cabin, adding more creature comforts to a cabin whose location is secluded.

The cabin is a short and easy 45 minute drive from Tromsø. Parking is in front of the property at the road. Guests walk up a small hill to reach the front gate of their alpine oasis. The hosts will be available to answer any questions and provide advise on local attractions.
