About this activity

During the trip, you will enjoy the stunning views of Abisko Village, Lake Torneträsk, and Lapporten. We’ll visit the impressive Abisko Canyon and admire the Silver Waterfall, which transforms into a frozen spectacle during the winter months.

Throughout the day, your guides will share stories and knowledge about this extraordinary region. Swedish Lapland is also home to an incredible variety of Arctic wildlife. In these pristine landscapes, it’s possible to spot reindeer moving gracefully through the snow, moose wandering along the forest edge, or even catch a glimpse of a fox, Arctic hare, or Arctic owl. You’ll also learn a few tips and tricks to help recognize tracks and other signs of wildlife during the walk.

After the tour, we’ll drive back to Kiruna along Lake Torneträsk, Kaisepakte, and the scenic Arctic Road, a beautiful route that offers one last look at the winter landscape before returning to Kiruna.
