A winter night in Abisko
Walk the snowfields in snowshoes

It runs about 3 hours with a guide, and groups are limited to 8 people. The tour is held in English and Swedish, and aurora sightings are not guaranteed because it is a natural phenomenon.
Learn to walk in snowshoes with your guide

Your guide shows you how to move on snow in snowshoes in winter. You walk slowly while the moon and starlight cast soft shadows on the snowfield. Along the way you take a break with warm berry juice, when only the sounds of the forest and mountains remain and you can feel the quiet of an Arctic night.
Look for tracks in the snow and the night sky

The winter birch forests of Abisko are home to many animals, so there is a good chance of seeing various tracks. You may see tracks of mountain hares, ptarmigan, foxes and lemmings, and with luck even elk tracks. On nights with a full moon and a clear sky you can also see the Abisko mountains, which include Lapporten, a U-shaped valley formed during the Ice Age.
※ The aurora is a natural phenomenon and sightings are not guaranteed.
※ Seeing animal tracks depends on natural conditions and is not guaranteed.
