Yes there are trees, though much of the Arctic is tundra and permafrost. Part of the boreal forest extends into the Arctic, though it gradually transitions into a lower taiga as one goes north. On Greenland, for example, there are no trees though.

The Arctic region consists of a ice-covered ocean, surrounded by treeless permafrost.
