Run by the Tromsø University Museum, the world’s northernmost botanical garden is on high ground in panoramic location, with mountain views all around.
The garden is open from May to October and has a variety of polar and Alpine flowers, perennials and herbs, with different species in bloom in each month.
The garden has plants you may not have encountered before, like slipper flowers from the Falkland Isles and Himalayan blue poppies from Tibet, which bloom in late June and have metre-high stems.
