We decided to push on north past Alta and aim for Olderfjord yesterday. Along the way passing lots of gift shops and quite a few moose in the road! Shortly after leaving Övertorneå we crossed the Arctic Circle - on the Finnish side there is a shop and cafe. We arrived here around 5pm having been on the road since half 8 - once entering Norway progress is slow. The campsite is well located just off the main road, has B&B, cabins and camping pitches. 210NOK per night for a campervan. Wifi is included. There is a sauna / showers available at extra cost (coin slot).
We treated ourselves to dinner in the restaurant. I had reindeer stew and mashed potato, a tasty and very filling meal. Lucy had Cod which was very fresh. Most of the tourist buses appear to stop at the shop here.
The view from the site is definitely the best so far...the last photo is a view from bed this morning!
