Kungsleden Trailhead (Abisko National Park)

Highlight • Trail

Here, in addition to the Kungsleden, the Rallarvägen begins, which was laid out as a construction site road during the construction of the Ofotbahn. Along this route there are many remains from the construction period of the railway line, but also from WWII, when this railway was of strategic importance as a means of transporting iron ore.

Rihdonjira Trail to Nuolja Summit

Highlight • Trail

From Abisko Turist it takes 3 hours to the Nuolja summit. Two segments are quite steep, the rest is what I would rate as "normal uphill". From Aurora Sky Station it is 2 more easy kilometers to the summit. The whole trail is marked with red hexagonal markers.

Nuolja Summit (1,169 m)

Highlight • Summit

The Nuolja (Northern Sami Njullá) | 1169 m

Beautiful mountain with a view over the Torneträsk and a wonderful view of Lapporten.
If you want, you can save yourself the climb and use the chairlift. There is a nice restaurant at the top that tempts you with a warm hot drink.
