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.

Pure nature just a short walk outside town. Good for a run or skiing at any suitable time of the year. Off the main tourist track, good for a picnic and taking a breather from town. Skip one of the main touristy attractions and go for this lake would be my consideration, if limited in time...

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

Amundvatnet is calm and beautiful, albeit not swimmable.

The crystal clear water of Lake Mellomvatnet invites you to take a break on the way up.

Lake Amundvatnet is located along the path to the Kjølen summit. It is not swimmable.

This is the Veibrink rest area on the old E6, right on the summit. Cyclists have to pass here because they are not allowed to use the new tunnel. If you have the time, you can camp here. There is almost no car traffic anymore. There is also a large open rest hut with benches and tables and other picnic benches outside. The dry toilet has unfortunately been closed. Please bring plenty of water with you!

Very easy to reach from the city, here you can walk around the lake in peace and quiet, away from the hustle and bustle, and at the same time you can also observe many birds.
