Make the challenging climb to the summit of Kebnekaise, Sweden’s tallest mountain. The height of Kebnekaise varies slightly throughout the year depending on the season, but it typically stands around 6,900 feet (2,100 meters). With no ski lifts, visitors need to make a vigorous day-long hike to see the dramatic views from the mountain peak. Begin your journey in the town of Nikkaluokta and make the 13-mile (21-kilometer) trek to the mountain’s base camp, STF Mountain Station Kebnekaise. This signposted trail passes through beautiful pinewoods and meadows. Hire a guide in Nikkaluokta to help you make the trek. Alternatively, start in Abikso and hike 65 miles (105 kilometers) along the Kungsleden (King’s Trail) to reach the base camp. In the summer, choose to hike by the extended light of the midnight sun. See if you can spot reindeer being herded by the Sami shepherds that inhabit the area. From the base camp, the Western Trail is the most popular and direct route to the summit, requiring no technical equipment. Allow about 13 hours to ascend and descend the mountain. More advanced climbers might consider taking on the steeper route up the eastern side of the mountain, which passes over the Björling Glacier. The view from the top is spectacular, with snow-covered peaks stretching out endlessly across the horizon. Reward yourself with a visit to the lodge’s sauna once you reach the base camp again. Enjoy a meal of local fare at the lodge’s wonderful restaurant or share stories with other climbers while sitting around the fireplace. Take a tent and pitch your own camp on the hills surrounding Kebnekaise or stay at the STF Mountain Station Kebnekaise. Nikkaluokta is best reached from Kiruna, about an hour’s journey by road. Alternatively, ride the bus to Aroksjokkvillage from Kiruna and then take a motorboat to Nikkaluokta. Kiruna has both an airport and a train station, with good connections to the rest of Sweden. Weather conditions are best for the trek between late June and September. See the fantastic views from the top of Sweden’s highest mountain. ### Popular places to visit ![Abisko National Park showing a river or creek](https://a.travel-assets.com/findyours-php/viewfinder/images/res70/155000/155705-Kiruna-And-Vicinity.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=900&h=506&q=mediumHigh) #### Abisko National Park Among Lappland’s most accessible national parks, this scenic expanse of wilderness marks the beginning of one of Sweden’s most famous hiking trails.
