The northern section of the Kungsleden in Lapland is probably the most famous and frequently travelled part of this historic 440km trail. From its starting point at the tourist station in Abisko, the trail leads south towards Kebnekaise with its peak of 2105m crowning over Swedens mountain terrain. Terrain Map
Polar dogs, deep valleys and majestic mountains and clean silence, only interrupted by the breathing of running dogs, our sleds are gliding on the snow surface. Multiple days of breathtaking views!
Experience the classic route of one of the most spectacular parts of nature you will ever find together with the incredible and loyal creatures we call man’s best friend – and I call family.
If you want to really experience the wild, astonishing beauty of northern Sweden there is no better way than going back in time, pack a traditional sled with good traditional food and give the Polar dogs the command to go.
We will welcome you in our home close to Kiruna, dress you in proper outer cloths, wool and Steger Mukluks and introduce you to your team of big expedition dogs – the type of dogs have been used traditionally for centuries. The first night you will sleep comfortably in your sleeping bag in a Tipi warmed up by an open fire with a belly filled with sturdy food made over the camp fire.
We will travel along the northern Kingstrail starting in Abisko. That means we will pack our gear and head on the road to drive up towards the mountain in anticipation of the trail ahead of us. The route will be customised according to what you might want to see, or how the trail conditions are, but we will finish in Kebnekaise/Nikkaluokta. We will sleep in swedish mountain cabins along the way. If you prefer solitude we of course can also rely on tents.
