In the deep snow the best way to walk is with snowshoes.
After picking you up from Kiruna town's central area, we will take you to our home in Kalixforsbron, where you will get dressed in winter clothing.
Snowshoes have been used for thousands of years as a way to traverse the deep snow by spreading out your weight so that you do not sink. On the hike, your guide will tell you about nature and wildlife in the Swedish tundra. We keep an eye out for animal tracks and trails to identify. You will learn how to find dry firewood in the snow covered forest, to make a warming fire. To further broaden your survival techniques in the harsh arctic environment, try ice fishing on Sir Folke’s frozen lake.
Back home we will warm up around an open fire in our Nordic tipi with hot soup and sandwiches as well as traditional Swedish fika. Afterwards we will take you back to Kiruna town.
