Langfjordbotn - Lákkovuonbahta

The landscape around Langfjordbotn is a fjord-head valley of steep slopes and subarctic birch woodland, which has shaped both the linear settlement pattern and local livelihoods. The community stands at the inner end of Langfjorden, a branch of Altafjorden, in Alta Municipality. The E6 follows the fjord through this part of Finnmark, placing Langfjordbotn on Norway’s principal north–south road route. Elsewhere in the municipality, the UNESCO-listed Rock Art of Alta preserves prehistoric carvings and paintings. At more than 70° north, the annual rhythm is marked by midnight-sun and polar-night seasons. Discover further places through webcams across Alta Municipality and Finnmark.
