Arctic Circle & Jokkmokk

Our cottage and holiday room are just an hour drive away from the arctic circle. From Arjeplog you drive up the Silvervägen (95) in direction of Norway and will pass the arctic circle. From our holiday room just continue to drive the E45 north in direction of Jokkmokk and you will inevitably pass the arctic circle shortly before Jokkmokk. Probably the most popular attraction of Jokkmokk is the yearly winter market in the beginning of Februrary when people from all over the world come to take part in the traditional market.

Arvidsjaur & Arjeplog

For those who seek more, the next bigger town Arvidsjaur or Arjeplog offer variety. There you will find amongst others a tourist information, a couple of shops, restaurants, pubs, banks, petrol stations, a leisure pool and doctors. The unique Sami town in Arvidsjaur (Lappstaden) or the Silver museum (Silvermuséet) in Arjeplog are definetely worth visiting. There you can learn a lot about the history of the Sami (original inhabitants) and the region. For more information please visit the tourist information!

The famous hiking track "Kungsleden" is just 80km away from our cottage.

Galtispuoda

From the local mountain at our cottage you can enjoy a fantastic view over the lake and forest landscape of the municipality of Arjeplog. At good weather conditions you can even see the mountain tops of Norway. A small road leads to the top of the mountain (800m), which you can either climb on foot or go by car. In winter you can go downhill skiing.

Our holiday homes can easily be reached by plane and car.

The perfect spot to see wildlife and enjoy outdoor activities such as canoeing, fishing, hiking, rafting on the Piteälv with its untamed waters designated as one of the most beautiful rivers in Sweden as well as berry and mushroom picking in autumn.
