The hike to the Alta Canyon is popular for good reason. The terrain is wonderful and easy to walk in and you experience magnificent views, especially when you reach the canyon. This is the perfect place to enjoy a nice lunch together, take photos and simply enjoy the view of Northern Europe's largest river canyon and the Alta River winding out towards the sea.
A canoeing adventure down the Alta River is a must for anyone wishing to experience something truly wonderful! You rarely get so close to nature as you do in a canoe. There will also be nice breaks and time to relax around an open fire on the riverbank. On this day trip, spending quality time together is at least as important as the nature-based experience itself.
Join us for a full day's ELECTRIC mountain biking experience on the best trails and gravel roads in the Alta Valley. The level can easily be adapted to make this tour suitable for everyone!
Accommodation
GLØD Aurora Canvas Dome
Really cool, stylish accommodation where you are so close to nature that you see and hear the squirrel outside the big window of the dome. The warmth from the wood-burning stove and a nice down duvet will steer you safely through the night. If you are very lucky, you will see the Northern Lights in the sky above you from your bed.
Breakfast is included and is served in the GLØD lounge.
We can offer a three course dinner every night. The menu varies according to the season, and we like to serve cod, lamb, reindeer, elk and salmon. Dinner must be ordered in advance.
The Aurora Canvas Domes have a small bathroom with toilet and you will find shower and sauna in the GLØD lounge about 30 m from the dome.
Our elegant Boutique Apartment for up to four (five) people is ideal for anyone who would prefer quiet and peaceful days in the pine forest in the countryside rather than staying in the town centre. You can relax and unwind in a peaceful setting where life and the time keep the same pace.

All the food we serve is produced in our kitchen. We are proud to be able to offer both local food and an international menu, based on local and regional ingredients.
Typical raw materials with us are cod, salmon, shellfish, reindeer, lamb and moose. These are often served in the season for which they are typical.
Enjoy delicious food either inside the GLØD living room or outside in our large lavvo.
In connection with the stor-lavvoen, we have our own stylish outdoor area, with bar and outdoor kitchen. There, the service can also be more casual, such as barbecue and Italian pizza from our pizza oven.
