Hiking & Climbing 120km in Swedens Arctic: Swedish Lapland in Winter

► About the Hike:

In the beginning of march 24, a good friend of mine and me began our first winter arctic adventure. The plan: Hike 120km from Nikkaluokta to Abisko and climb Kebnekaise on the way. We couldn’t believe our senses in the beginning of our Hike, when we didn’t see any clouds, felt no wind at all and noticed it was pretty warm. Usually this area around Kebnekaise and Abisko is known for its aggressive arctic winds and it’s possible to have -30 degrees celsius and less in march. On the second day we’ve witnessed one of the strongest northern lights in a long time. And that from a spot, where we could see far into Norway above all the other mountains. A hut warden who was working in the area for 40+ years said that he has never seen stronger ones. What a scene. See the rest for yourself, hope you enjoy.
