By car

Car with ferry

The fastest route is via Pajala – Finland – Kautokeino – Alta – Langfjordsbotten, where the ferry departs. You can find the ferry schedule at https://snelandia.no/ or on the Snelandia app in the App Store.

Search from: Øksfjord ferjekai (Loppa) to: Hasvik kai (Hasvik). It is recommended to take the afternoon ferry, as you will arrive just in time for check-in at the camp. From July 2022, the ferry is free.

Car from Alta

It is also possible to fly to Alta and rent a car, then take the ferry from Øksfjord to Sørøya. This is a good alternative if you want access to a car for sightseeing on the island or fishing for trout/char in the mountains.
