Prestvannet (Prestvatn), on the island of Tromsøya: a small urban lake located at the highest point of the city, originally created as a water reservoir in 1867 and now part of a protected natural area much loved by locals. In February, it looks like a silent Arctic basin: a frozen surface, compact snow along the shoreline, birch trees and conifers covered in white, and low winter light with bluish Nordic tones that make the landscape feel almost monochromatic. Around it runs an easy loop of about 1.7–1.9 km, perfect for a short but very scenic winter walk. It is worth visiting on foot in this season because it offers real nature without leaving the city, a simple trail, crisp air, outstanding photogenic scenery, and, on clear evenings, even a good chance to look for the Northern Lights. In winter, it is best enjoyed from the paths around the lake: the municipality notes that the ice may have uneven thickness in some areas.

Prestvannet and the surrounding parks are a popular destination in Tromsø, both summer and winter. The lake boasts a rich birdlife of ducks, gulls, and other birds, which is why parts of the lake are protected during the breeding season. The lake is located on Tromsøya, 96 meters above sea level, and covers an area of approximately 30 hectares.

Two shelters in the picnic area. Public restrooms are nearby, but they close at night.

More and more visitors and vacationers are interested in Norwegian street art, graffiti, and other urban art. Cruise ship passengers use the time while their ship is in port to explore the graffiti and urban artworks in the surrounding area. We came across a video on the "visittromso" Instagram channel that demonstrates the diversity. Colorful and painted walls amidst the snow create a completely different effect. It's certainly a challenge for the artists to express their creativity during the winter months, when temperatures hover around freezing.

Home to the historic Troms Folk Museum, Folkeparken is a beautiful place to run and hike through. There are gorgeous views from the park across the water towards Kvaløya.

A nice little lake that breaks up the landscape nicely on the way up to Kjølen.
