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.
