The municipality, in figures
The municipality
Balsfjord is a very large municipality measuring 61 by 54 kilometres, spread over 5 separate pieces. With 5.571 inhabitants it is practically uninhabited (4 per square kilometre). It has a coastline, and that matters: the strip of maritime-terrestrial public domain is governed by its own rule, different from that of the rest of the municipality. It borders 8 municipalities, and the answer may change on crossing any of those lines.

Adjoining municipalities with their rule. This site does not say where other people have slept: that is a different product.
Signage on site and the local authority prevail. This reproduces the written rule as of the date indicated: it is neither legal advice nor an authorisation.
