From Nikkaluokta to Abisko

Láddjuvággi, Tjäktjavagge, Stuor Reaiddávággi, Visttasvággi, Alesvagge, Čoalmmevággi, Abiskodalen, Kårsavagge

5 – 16 September 2017

An autumn tour in the Swedish Fjäll is waiting for you! Includes: bright autumn colours in all shades of yellow, orange and red, northern lights in green and violet and of course reindeer in white and brown!
Our route covers the most beautiful valleys in the Kebnekaise mountains, largely off the beaten track of the famous Kungsleden. After the start in Nikkaluokta we hiked through the Láddjuvággi to Kebnekaise Fjällstation and the next day onwards to Tjäktjavagge, where we spent the night in Sälka and then left the Kungsleden into the Stuor Reaiddávággi. We spent the night in the Nallostugan and experienced immediately a magic northern lights night. The next day we continued to Vistasstugan, then we went through the Visttasvággi to Alesjaure and from there through the Čoalmmevággi to Unna Allakas. We stayed there for three days, enjoyed the fantastic landscape and made a short trip to Norway. We continued through the Abiskodalen to Abiskojaure and then over the pass to Kårsavagge, which we followed to Abisko.
