Altafjord defines the setting of Kvenvik — its coastal waters and mountain-backed shores place this small settlement within the maritime landscape of western Finnmark. Kvenvik belongs to Alta Municipality, where the coast meets the open interior of Norway’s far north and changing Arctic light marks the seasons. Nearby Alta is home to the UNESCO-listed Rock Art of Alta at Hjemmeluft, preserving prehistoric carvings and paintings created over millennia. Kvenvik provides a quiet introduction to Finnmark’s fjords, uplands and sparse northern settlement. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Alta Municipality and Finnmark.
