Åreskutan – summit and Sweden's highest situated café

Highlight • Summit

Ludvig Tjärnström and Leslie Monroy run Sweden's highest café, the "Toppstuga" on the summit of Åreskutan at an altitude of 1,420 meters. It's definitely not easy, but they actually serve homemade cakes and waffles here. And they claim to have a dream job despite (or perhaps because of?) the absolutely crazy weather conditions. In 1892, Sweden's highest mountain hut was built, located in one of the most extreme climates in the world. Wind gusts of sixty meters per second and absolute world-leading icing as well as violent thunderstorms are not uncommon. The Åreskutan attracts like a magnet the low-pressure foothills from the Atlantic, which often make their way over the mountain range here. The material for the construction was transported up by horse-drawn sleigh. The café is not open every day due to the weather, but you always have the opportunity to seek shelter in the so-called shelter of the hut in the entrance area. Even when the "Toppstuga" is not open, there is a diverse selection of food and drinks in the cable car mountain station.
