A mountain range on the Lyngen peninsula in northern Troms county, rising from near sea level to peaks above 1,800 metres, with several glaciers descending steeply into the surrounding fjords. The range is considered one of Norway's finest ski touring destinations, with routes that combine Arctic conditions, reliable snowpack, and dramatic vertical relief. Lyngseidet is the main village on the peninsula and serves as a base for guided and independent expeditions.
