Aktivitetstype: River and Fjord

This trip will take you into the wilderness, where no cars can enter. The tour starts directly outside Sorrisniva and takes you to the best fishing spots in the reiver Sierra.

This trip is perfect for lager groups who want a taste of a river adventure. It is perfect to combine with lunch, dinner, meeting and other team adventures at Sorrisniva. Listen to our local guides’ stories about the River, while eing surrounded by beautiful natural scenery.
Perfect family trip! After the trip you will be served hot beverages and cake at Sorrisniva.

The water level in the Alta River does rise and fall, and there are times when tours may not operate if the water level is too low to safely operate.

We start by driving up the valley of Tverrelvdalen past the slate quarries at Stilla and Nullpunktet – where the historic demonstrations against the construction of the hydroelectric power plant took place – then up to Sautso. We start paddling 2 km down river from the dam and you will soon gain your first experience of northern Europe’s largest canyon.

Few people venture into the Alta Canyon, primarily because it’s so difficult to get there. You will experience incredible nature, eagles, salmon, various duck species and long river boats in perfect union! If we’re lucky, we can add a moose and fox as well!

We set up camp just below the Alta Canyon. We can gather around the campfire and talk about the incredible nature we have experienced and the huge and majestic Canyon we have just paddled down. Many may need the night for the experience to sink in so that we don’t run out of things to talk about during breakfast. We then paddle further down the river and hopefully experience the eccentric salmon fishing that takes place in the Alta River.

The trip ends at Sorrisniva or Bollo, roughly 25 km further down river. We expect to be back in Alta between 16.00 and 18.00 (4-6pm), but this time may be adapted to suit your plans.
