OUR HISTORY

Alta slate played an important part in our history, and is a decorative stone sought after ad used in the entire world. In honor of this we created a private venue room, decorated with slate, tools and photos from the Slate history. This private room, Skiferstua, can be booked for private meetings and venues up to 20 people.

During the early years of tourism in Alta, wealthy tourists came to Alta to experience the summer and to fish in the famous Alta River, which is known for its salmon. Even the Norwegian king visits Alta River every summer to start the fishing season. These wealthy tourists hired guides to take them up the Alta River to the best fishing places. These guides - called Stakers - inspired us and in their honor we named our restaurant after them: Stakeriet.
