Alta

Automatic translation by Google :

On the south bank of the mighty Altafjords is Alta, 11000 inhabitants, the largest city in Finnmark. The University of Fylke is here, and there are some industrial plants and quarries. The climate is amazing: Rainfall and temperatures are rather rare, and in the vicinity of the city even wheat ripens. From the Finnmark, the Salmon River Altaelva down after passing the Alta dam and the canyon Sautso in Altafjord leads.

We don't have a description in English on Alta, but we have one in German, French, Italian, Spanish. Help us translate by simply writing a review!
