small pitches, used by many for only 1 day. Arta must be visited. The church, the museum with the famous rock drawings and the ski jump. With the MTB, you can explore the area very well. It's not far to the canyon, but the hike is quite challenging. A visit to the restaurant opposite the campsite is a must to enjoy the dishes of the Sami.

Good place - very clean - rustic sauna cabin - all disposal possibilities - unfortunately close to the road - little traffic at night - parking spaces very small - friendly reception - for those who want to do the Alta River Canyon Hike (highly recommended) - this place is a very good base
