Tranøya - Where Time Stands Still
Tranøya, a peaceful island off southern Senja, has attracted settlers for 2,000 years, from the Iron Age through Viking and Christian communities. Our local host will bring the island’s rich history to life with captivating stories. You can explore at your own pace, through the 18th century church and parsonage (home to the Mid-Troms museum), as well as the pathways on the island.
