Alta Holidays

Dog Sledding
Alta is the start and end point of the Finnmarksløpet, the worlds northernmost and Europe's longest dog sled race. As such, husky sledding is taken very seriously here and most of the husky kennels open for tourists double as professional racing kennels too, so you're garmented an fantastic experience! Dog sledding is an exhilarating and beautiful way to explore Alta's stunning landscapes.. 

Chase the Northern Lights
Alta hasn't been dubbed the City of the Northern Lights for nothing. Witnessing the northern lights burst forth across the sky is nothing short of magical and, in Alta, you can experience this as part of a small group, without hoards of other tourists that flock to some of the other, more prominent northern lights destinations in Europe. 

Snowmobile Safari
Alta offers plenty of different opportunities to try your hand at driving a snowmobile. There's nothing quite like the feeling fo speeding off across the frozen lake or through the forests on the back of a snowmobile. This is an exciting and memorable way to explore the Arctic. 

Sleep in an Igloo
Alta is home to Sorrisniva Igloo Hotel, the world's most northerly ice hotel. Sorrisniva constructed its very first Igloo hotel back in 1999 making it the second oldest ice hotel in the world. Here, guests can spend an enchanting night amid the fairytale like structure that is created anew each year by local artists.
