The hospital in Harstad is located at St Olavs gate 70, directly opposite the town centre.
On foot
If you choose to walk, you can reach the hospital in about 15 minutes. Please note that Harstadgårdsveien can feel both long and steep if you have difficulty walking.
Bus and express boat
If you are coming to the hospital from Harstad town centre (from Harstad city terminal), the easiest options are:
- Bus number 11 towards Samamoa (if you take route 11 towards Gansås, you will need to walk up Gamle kirkevei, which is steep).
- Bus number 15 towards Fagerlia
Both bus routes depart from the closest busstop (turn right when coming from the Harstad express boat quay).
It is recommended to use the journey planner from Troms County Traffic (Svipper). The information in the journey planner is always up to date.
