  2. Narvikfjellet Cable Car

    Above the town, the Narvikfjellet Cable Car climbs 656m for breathtaking views over the surrounding peaks and fjords and even as far as Lofoten on a clear day. Several marked walking trails radiate from its top station or you can bounce down a signed mountain bike route.

  3. Ofoten Museum

    The Ofoten Museum tells of Narvik's farming, fishing, railway building and ore trans-shipment heritage. There's a rolling film about the Ofotbanen Railway and children will enjoy pressing the button that activates the model train. Linger too over the display case of Sami costumes and artefacts and the collection of historic photos, contrasted with modern shots taken from the same angles.

  4. Red Cross War Museum

    Narvik's Red Cross War Museum admirably illustrates the military campaigns fought hereabouts in the early years of WWII. The presentation may not be flash but it will still stun you.
