Let your adventure begin now and create memories for life with Altaturer!

Day 1
Your Reisadalen journey starts already on Saturday morning, August 20, with departure from Alta around 10. We will take you to a world of experiences in a comfortable and exciting way.
We start in Alta, drive to Kautokeino and explore Juhls Sølvsmie before continuing to Bidjovagge. From here we walk along Reisavannet to the charming Nilutstugan, covered by Inger Marie and Mikkel Nilut's hospitality. After a day of 10-12 km, you can enjoy a relaxing sauna and a wonderful dining experience. Maybe you would even like to take a refreshing dive in Reisavannet?

Day 2
After a good night's sleep, the tour goes over mountains and through varied nature down to Nedrefosshytta. Here you can experience the landscape's dramatic change on a 25 km hike. After a day of challenging movements, you can treat yourself to well-being in the sauna or perhaps a dip in the Reisaelva river?

Day 3
Breakfast at Nedrefosshytta before a new day starts. Here you have two exciting options: Either you can paddle in our stable Packrafts down the Reisaelva, or follow the river bank to the impressive Mollisfossen before enjoying a lunch in the open air. Afterwards you will be welcomed by Saraelv for a tasty meal and a relaxing overnight stay with the possibility of a hot tub under the stars at Reisastua.

Day 4
After a good night's sleep, a hearty breakfast awaits. For those who want, there are opportunities for a fantastic summit hike in Reisadalen before we head towards Storslett. From here you can easily get back to Tromsø or Alta, with the possibility of shared transport and practical solutions.

Reisadalen's adventure offers varied nature, cultural treasures and relaxation - all in one. Paddle, hike, enjoy the view and relax in comfortable surroundings. Join us on an experience that suits both adventurers and those who want to explore at your own pace. Book your place already today and let Reisadalen enchant you!
