Aurora Snowshoeing in Abisko

Capture the true feeling of a winter night in the arctic. Your guide will take you to learn the
wintry way of movement with snowshoes. While walking on the snow, you will experience
how the milky light of the moon and stars cast enchanting shadows through the snowfields
and hopefully some northern lights if the sky keeps clear.

In Abisko there is a lot of animals that dwell in the birch forest during winter, so the
possibility to see a lot of tracks is quite big. Most likely you will see tracks of forest hare,
ptarmigan, foxes, lemmings, and if you are lucky you might even spot tracks form a moose.

During the tour we will have a break and enjoy some warm berry juice while the only sound
you hear is the sough of the forest and fells. If you are lucky, you may even see the Northern
Lights dance over the lake Torneträsk and over the mountaintops.

If there is a full moon and a clear sky you will also get a spectacular view over the Abisko
mountain range which includes one of Sweden’s most famous mountain formations Lapporten
which is a U-valley sculptured by the ice age

The tours start at 20:00. The duration is approximately 3 hours.
The tour includes snowshoes, hot beverages and transfers from/to your accommodation in Abisko or Björkliden.
