Northern Norway

Malangen Resort serves as an excellent starting point and base camp for those looking to explore the Tromsø region and Senja Island. There are plenty of activities at the resort and beautiful hikes in the dramatic surrounding nature. The resort's location on the map also ensures that several attractions and fantastic natural experiences are easily accessible by car.

The resort takes its name from the Malangen fjord it sits beside. The word formation "ang" in "Malangen" predates the Viking Age. The first part of the name, "Mal," likely originates from the Old Norse word for border, "mala." The fjord has historically been considered a place where the Norse, Sámi, and Kven areas of the North converged. With the resort as the starting point, you can experience exiting adventures, and the melting pot of Norwegian coastal culture, Sámi and Kven cultures, along with the urban life in Tromsø, the largest city in Northern Norway.

WHEN DO THE NORTHERN LIGHTS OCCUR?

The Northern Lights can occur at any time from September, providing it’s dark and the sky is clear! There is no certain time as this is a natural phenomenon. It’s worth noting that as Malangen Resort is situated right under the Northern Lights Oval, the Northern Lights can appear in any direction and not just to the north, as is the case in places further south.

DO I NEED TO MAKE DINNER RESERVATIONS?

Yes, we kindly request dinner reservations so that we can anticipate how many guests to serve each evening. Please make your reservation at reception.

A HIKER'S PARADISE

The Malangen fjord is surrounded by majestic mountains. Some of them, such as Bentsjordtinden, rise more than 1,100 metres above the fjord.

TRADITIONAL WOODEN CHURCH

Malangen Church is situated in a rural setting in the village of Mortenhals, an eight-minute drive from Malangen Resort. The church, which dates to 1853, was designed and built by locals. The well-kept wooden church was built in traditional long church style and can seat 280 people.

The wedding ceremony can also be held at a choice of scenic venues at Malangen Resort: inside with panoramic views, outside on the large wooden terrace, on the pier quay or at Camp Nikka, our wilderness camp on the shores of the idyllic Nikkavannet, which is a 15-minute walk from the resort.
