Join one of the most beautiful mountain bike tours you can do in Alta. Experience rolling plateau landscapes on the first part, fun descents into Altadalen and wonderful singletrack along the east side of the Alta River to Glød. Along the way we enjoy lunch and campfire coffee and enjoy ourselves in the heather.

Many people associate Alta and Finnmark with plateaus, rivers and fjords. On this tour you will experience all of this.

About the tour

After the bike and equipment have been adjusted, we are transported by car up to Jotkavann, on the Finnmarksvidda plateau, where the tour starts

The first part of the tour follows ancient traditional mountain roads that were used long ago by those going towards Karasjok, or into the mountains to harvest; hunting, fishing, trapping and berry picking. These follow the heights of the terrain and are in many cases dry and very pleasant to cycle on.

Campfire lunch along the way is included.

The tour continues down into Altadalen, past the largest cabin area in Alta; Bollo, and then down to the Alta River at Sorrisniva. The tour on the east side of the Alta River is considered one of the most beautiful mountain bike rides in Alta. The trail is technical in some places and everyone has to roll the bike in some parts.

If desired, the sauna is warm upon arrival at Glød HQ

A total of about 40-45 km and a net 350 meters of altitude loss. So there will be a lot of movement
