This page is going to be about my hike through Abisko National Park. This is a part of my hiking trip in July 2005 in the Swedish Fjällen. Abisko National Park is a small park in the lower parts of the magnificent high fjällen (Nordic mountain area) that spreads south from Torne Träsk to Kebnekaise.

The other chapters about this trip are:

You can read an overview of this whole trip on my Norrbottens Län

I've devided up my page in several chapters:

■ Things to do: An overview of the places I visited during my hike through the park.

■ Accommodations: A description of places I stayed at, describing the place and the feeling I had about it. Fun to read for those who want to get the feeling of this area and also for ones to plan a future trip here.

■ Transportation: The easiest way to get to Abisko.

■ Packing List: What to bring during a long hike in the Fjällen.

■ General tips: More information about the famous hiking trail "The Kungsleden" and a some tips about planning hiking distances. Also tips about: "The Right of Public Access", " The Fjällen" area, and the Swedish National Parks.

I hope you will enjoy reading this page! Please leave me a comment what you think about it! :-))
Please read this page in 'authors order' as I mostly write my pages not only as separate tips, but with a story-line in it.

I haven't been that far north in Sweden, but hiking there must be really great - no crowds, just nature. Did you see any reindeer there? Lots of practical information on your page.
