Bridge near Alta Camping

Highlight • Bridge

There is a good view of the river from the bridge. Right next to it is the campsite. A few small boats are parked on the beach. I'm not sure if you can rent one.

Northern Lights Cathedral (Alta Church)

Highlight • Religious Site

The evangelical cathedral is definitely worth a visit. Stunning no-corner architecture modeled after the Northern Lights with a bronze statue of Jesus made in Italy.

Northern Lights Cathedral

Highlight • Religious Site

A very interesting building. At first I didn't know it was a cathedral. There is lighting at night. If you are lucky you can catch the northern lights in the background at night.
