Nature and science

Troms is hard work for your camera; glaciers, waterfalls, gorges and dramatic cliffs are found around every corner. The beauty spots also require some explanation, so do not miss out on experience centres, zoos, planetariums and botanic gardens as well as fascinating exhibits explaining the wonders and mysteries of the nature of Troms.
