Tucked away just a few minutes from Tromsø’s main shopping street, this picture-perfect stretch of Storgata is lined with traditional, colorful wooden houses set against a stunning backdrop of mountains. It’s one of those quiet corners that captures the charm of northern Norway—especially in winter when the snow makes the colors pop even more.

The blue house on the left might catch your eye first—not only for its bold color, but because it’s actually a hostel! Keep walking down the street for more photo opportunities, especially if the light hits just right.

📸 Best time: Morning or soft afternoon light for even colors and fewer people
💡 Tip: Stand slightly back to frame the houses with the mountain peaks in the background—it’s a great spot for portraits or scenic shots.
