Arriving here you will experience the unique home of the Sami people and Kungsleden, the “Kings Trail,” an expansive landscape of birch forests, stunning glaciers, powerful rivers and the highest mountains in Sweden.
Your winter snowshoe expedition begins in Abisko, home to one of Sweden’s oldest National Parks. Abisko is also famous for being one of the best places on earth to view the Aurora (Northern Lights). You will average 14kms per day trekking through a spectacular and ever changing landscapes. Each night will be spent in remote arctic mountain huts, were you can enjoy a sauna at the end of perfect day of snowshoeing in the Arctic Circle.
This is the perfect opportunity to be an Artic explorer as you will be self-supported, carrying all our own kit of around 12-14kgs for the entire route, chopping wood, lighting a fire in the stove, cook food and fetching water from remote wells. A good level of fitness is required and previous trekking experience would be beneficial for you, however you do not need any snowshoeing experience as training will be provided.
