Alta is known for it's amazing scenery and long history. Many tourists choose to drive to the Rock Art of Alta, because it's cheaper to do so through a rental than public transport, and enjoy the historic carvings that have been there for an estimate of 6000 years. The Tirpitz museum, located outside the city center, in Alta, is another favorite as it displays the naval history of the Second World War. The dam and canyon in Alta are also breathtaking. Tourists can park their rentals at the information center and take a boat ride on the river or a guided coach ride to see the beautiful canyons
