Kyte is a hamlet and basic statistical unit (grunnkrets) in Voss Municipality in Vestland county, Norway. It is located just southeast of the village of Nordheim and west of the village of Klyve. The municipal centre, Vossavangen, is located about to the southwest.
Kyte includes the farms Nedra Kyte (literally, 'lower Kyte'; elevation ) to the southwest and ÃÂvre Kyte (literally, 'upper Kyte'; elevation ) to the northeast. The settlement is accessible via Norwegian County Road 5388, also known as Kytesvegen ().
The settlement was attested as Kytuin in 1303 (and as Kytin in 1417 and Kythen in 1468, among other names). The name is originally a compound of *Kýt-(v)in; the first element may mean 'hump' or 'rise' and the second element, vin, is a common Old Norse place-name element meaning 'meadow' or 'pasture'.
