With some terrific road trip options available in the surrounding area, having your own car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to enjoy all that Narvik, 17 miles away, has to offer. Narvikfjellet ought to be high up on your list here. Red Cross War Memorial Museum and Fagernesfjellet are terrific attractions too. The locals will also likely point you in the direction of Harstad, 17 miles away. If you only have time for one thing here, make sure it’s Trondenes Historical Centre. (But we’d also recommend Grottebadet Waterpark and The Troll’s Church.)
