This website is produced by Swedish Lapland Visitors My best tip is to go out and experience the vastness of our nature. Two of my many favourite places are Skierfe and Stora Sjöfallet. It doesn’t have to be hard or a great adventure to get out, the magnificence is in just being out there. Looking out over the old mountains, the large forests and the rolling rivers is soothing for the soul. That’s where my thoughts stop spinning in my head, my breath goes deeper, my heartbeats slow down and my soul gets revived. Swedish Lapland has a healing effect on a stressed soul.

Abisko National Park in Swedish Lapland offers perhaps some of the best conditions in the world for Northern Lights. The surrounding mountains keep the skies almost clear and the light pollution is next to nothing. No wonder Lonely Planet dubbed Abisko the world’s most illuminating experience of 2015.

Since 1605, for over 400 years, Jokkmokk’s wonderful Winter Market has been held annually beginning on the first Thursday in February. Attracting tens of thousands of visitors from around the world, the market remains the foremost meeting place for Sámi peoples across the entire Sápmi region.

It was with some trepidation that I joined my first snowmobile tour into what looked like a frozen alien landscape. A place where no sensible person should tread. Sounds dangerous? Let me explain, I am a sailor. Happiest with a full main and perfectly trimmed genoa and standing on a heaving timber deck. Preferably somewhere tropical.

King’s Trail or Kungsleden, is Sweden’s longest and most famous trail and mostly frequented during summer. But it’s an equally exciting adventure by skis during winter. Göran Wallin, keen outdoor enthusiasts, gives us the insides to this great trail through the mountains of Swedish Lapland.
