Between the mountains and the ocean - Narvik

Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of Narvik.

My visit to Narvik was in May 2008, but on my coming back I posted only a couple of pictures and I did not build a proper page. However, two years later I decided I should stop being so lazy and I wrote the tips that you can read here now.

My trip to Narvik was attached to a stay in Sweden, in fact I made the train trip all the way from Stockholm to here, a matter of about 24 hours.

Are you curious to know if I went back by train again? Yes, but only up to Kiruna, because after viisting Kiruna I took a plane.

Doing the Stockholm-Narvik train trip is one of my dreams. I hope you will post more pictures of it.
