Fjellheisen, Cable car station in Tromsdalen, Norway.

The Fjellheisen cable car system connects Solliveien in Tromsdalen to Storsteinen mountain, ascending from 50 meters to 421 meters above sea level in four minutes.

Established in 1961 by Brødrene Jakobsens Rederi shipping company, the cable cars display polar bear and seal symbols representing the Arctic maritime heritage.

The upper station provides observation points for natural phenomena including the midnight sun from May to July and Northern Lights from September to April.

Return tickets cost 495 NOK for adults and between 155-240 NOK for children, with the cable car operating daily from early morning until late evening.

Following a complete fire destruction in 1979, the mountain restaurant remained closed for 13 years before reopening as Fjellstua in 1992.
