Rombaksfjord
Rombaken
A narrow branch of the Ofoten Fjord reaching east into the mountains. Steep snow-capped cliffs and a bridge across the fjord make it a classic Narvik view.
Rombaksfjord extends about 20 km east from Narvik towards the mountains near the Swedish border. The E6 highway and the Hålogaland Bridge run along the north shore, while the Ofoten Line railway clings to the cliffs on the south shore. In 1940, German destroyers were scuttled at the head of the fjord. The panorama is best appreciated from the train or along the E6 by car. In summer, kayaking and boat tours are available. At the end of the fjord lies Rombaksbotn, the end point of the Rallarveien hiking trail.
