Mounted with everything needed for survival and comfort, it allows adventurers to carry gear across snow-laden valleys, through silent pine forests, and past frozen lakes shimmering under Nordic skies. As you pull your gear through the wilderness, you’ll witness the stark beauty of snow-covered mountains, encounter top-tier Northern Lights in season, and immerse yourself in the solitude that has drawn explorers to this part of Sweden for generations.

Kiruna Guidetur’s approach emphasizes independence—participants can pick up their rental gear directly from their Kiruna office, providing flexibility to craft a trip that fits your schedule and style. This route strikes a balance between challenge and awe, making it perfect for seasoned snow travelers and motivated first-timers seeking a taste of Arctic survival.
