Camp Alta Kiruna

Two nights in a tent on our way to Norway. Camping field was small but not overbooked. The kitchen was clean, showers a bit old-fashioned but worked. Sauna was good. And no mosquitos! A tip for birdwatchers: this seems to be a good place to observe waxwings.

Picturesque place with many great trips, lovely and helpful staff and lots of local experiences to do! The camp is very clean and it is located by the beautiful lake. It has saunas, fireplace, lots of equipment to rent and pretty cabins. Best for 2-7 days at any time of the year!

We have been to Camp Alta once before, loved it and wanted to come back for a whole week. But unfortunately regretted it and realized the accomodation works well only for very short stays. We found the camp very neglected: poor cleaning in the cabin at check-in and in the common space, in the kitchen basic items were missing (NO bowls nor spoons, so impossible to have a soup or cereals, the pans all broken, the toaster out of order but still around the kitchen). The most problematic thing was our bed. We booked a two-people (adults) cabin, and ended up with a 120-cm bed. The pictures were taken with a wide angle and the bed looked ok, so we were very surprised and disappointed when we found a tiny bed. We asked if a camping bed could be added, but they could not help us. As a result, we didn't sleep for a whole week, which is definitely problematic. Check the size of the bed before booking anything. I realized only once we were there that in their official website you can find the size of the bed (not on ***********), but still, a bed of 120cm should not for any reason be found in a two-people accomodation.

Alcune cabine non hanno bagnonin camera, dovete tenere conto dei costi extra per coperte e lenzuola. Ci sono strutture migliori in zona a costi più bassi o con servizi migliori. Pessima la corrispondenza con la struttura che risponde in ritardo.

Struttura in una posizione meravigliosa di fronte ad un lago ghiacciato, ci si sente totalmente immersi nella natura ed è una buona location per vedere l’aurora. Kiruna è raggiungile in 10 minuti di auto. Abbiamo optato per un bungalow con bagno interno, 2 stanze (1 molto piccola ma ci siamo mossi tardi a prenotare ed era l’unica soluzione disponibile) un salottino e cucina, ben riscaldato e con tutto l’occorrente. Abbiamo noleggiato le lenzuola ed erano pulitissime. Lo staff è sempre molto gentile e pronto a darti una mano in qualsiasi cosa. Nel camp l’ospite deve in autonomia occuparsi della pulizia della propria cabina e degli spazi comuni utilizzati, abbiamo trovato grande educazione e rispetto per il prossimo. Ben organizzate le escursioni con i cani e con la motoslitta. Posto consigliato

El lugar es realmente bonito y sí, vimos auroras boreales, que es lo que buscábamos. Cabaña para dos, exactamente D3. El equipamiento de la cabaña, correcto, lo indicado. La limpieza de la cabaña, bastante que desear. Entiendo que todos colaboremos en dejar todo limpio pero hay suciedad de no pasar bien la aspiradora y falta de higienización. Por las ventanas entra buena corriente y los estores que se mueven del aire, ya los podían cambiar o limpiar, porque de veras que están sucios, no de un uso. De veras que creo que los dueños, en este aspecto, deben mejorar. Las instalaciones, bien descritas, de uso común, la cocina bien, pero las duchas necesitan una buena limpieza y desinfección. Mucha. Me han dejado mucho que desear. No pasé frío, algo positivo. Contratamos una excursión de moto de 32km, lo que no indican en la descripción de la actividad es que te dejan/ obligan a estar casi 4 horas en un pueblo con poco que hacer. El hotel del hielo espectacular, pero el pueblo sami mejor valorar si entrar, yo me sentí estafada. Como te obligan a estar allí, tuve que pagar 40€ por mal comer y eso me fastidia,(hubo gente que por no comer, tuvo que aguantar el hambre) me gasto el dinero donde quiero y cuando quiero, eso no lo especifican en las condiciones de la excursión. Está mal y creo que deberíais mejorar este aspecto. En realidad la excursión en moto se reduce a 1 hora de ida y 1 hora de vuelta y podría ser mucho más crítica, no me gustó nada, la verdad. La atención de la gente muy buena, nos ayudaron cuando lo necesitamos y nos sentimos bien atendidos.
