The small, unguarded hut at Allmän makes an ideal stop during a tour from Jäkkvik.

It has a stove and a gas cooker. Outside, places are provided for a fire. You will find wood in the nearby thickets.

June 30, 2024,Bergtour zum Pieljekaise (SE) ab Jäckvick Wanderparkplatz

The conditions are good. As planned yesterday, we are going to Pieljekaise, the namesake of the NP and also the highest mountain in the region. 🏞🏔
I am equipped with 3 jackets and need all 3. At the start it is warm in the sun, at the summit it is bitterly cold in drizzle, sleet and strong wind. 🥶
