Hiking Experiences

The local wilderness offers many opportunities for hiking whether wandering along the riverbank or rambling to a local hilltop.

Hike to Orvvosfossen

Orvvosfossen flows into the river called Orvvosjohka. You must cross this once on the trip to the final destination. The trail follows a tree-rich and beautiful forest area until you reach the waterfall after about 2 km. You can also climb up the ridge above the waterfall and study the water masses where they flow over the rocks and surrounding nature.

  • Distance: 4 km
  • Duration: 3 hours
  • Difficulty: Easy/Medium

Hike includes transfer to/from the trailhead, experienced local guide, warm drinks and packed lunch made of local ingredients.

Hike to Alta Canyon

This is a hike that takes you over a beautiful section of the Finnmarksvidda. Within a wide open landscape you are bound to find wild blueberries and lingonberries, and if you’re lucky you might even find a patch of what we like to call “Finnmark’s gold”, or more commonly known as the cloudberry.

  • Difficulty: Medium
  • Distance: 11 km
  • Duration: 5,5 hours

On this adventure you will explore the renowned Finnmark mountain plateau. Although this hike is relatively long, the terrain is quite manageable and easy to manoeuvre. This is our most recommended hike since it is easily accessible, gives you a sense of exploration and adventure, as well as a sense of accomplishment as you admire the view of Northern Europe’s Largest Canyon and the famous salmon fishing river – the Alta River.

Hike includes transfer to/from the trailhead, experienced local guide, warm drinks and packed lunch made of local ingredients.
