Tips from KirunA<br />
On a tour to Trollsjön.<br />
Go on a tour<br />
Go on a tour by boat, on foot or, why not, by dog<br />
sled – yes, even in summer. Hike in our nice mountain<br />
environment to places like Trollsjön, Rommbakk,<br />
Låktatjåkko or Treriksröset, or climb to the<br />
top of Sweden’s highest mountain, Kebnekaise. And,<br />
don’t miss a tour in the light of the midnight sun –<br />
simply magical.<br />

Culture enriches<br />
There’s so much cultural inspiration in Kiruna<br />
<strong>Lapland</strong>. Meet our indigenous population, the<br />
Samis, and learn about pioneers and settlers who<br />
came here from near and far to mine the ore and<br />
build the town. Enjoy the rich culture of the countryside<br />
in its villages with history dating back many<br />
hundreds of years.<br />
How about<br />
a bit of adrenaline?<br />
Butterflies in the stomach when you do something<br />
out of the ordinary is great. In Kiruna <strong>Lapland</strong> you<br />
don’t always have to be an extreme adventurer to<br />
manage a more daring activity. Cave tours, whitewater<br />
rafting, climbing and mountain bike tours<br />
in the wilderness can be undertaken with skilful<br />
guides who will make sure you are safe and get the<br />
most out of the adventure.<br />
Midnight Sun<br />
During the period May 30 to July 14, you can see<br />
the sun abovehorizon, if it is not cloudy, of course.<br />
From the beginning of May to the beginning<br />
August the nights are bright.<br />

Fishing for young and old<br />
Fishing attracts many people, whatever their age.<br />
And often it’s not primarily about the catch but<br />
the nature experience. In Kiruna <strong>Lapland</strong>, you can<br />
choose from exclusive tours with guides to fishing<br />
camps in unspoilt nature or hiring tackle and making<br />
your own trip into the surrounding area.<br />
There are more<br />
suggestions for<br />
activities and tours to book<br />
