General presentation
Jokkmokk and Swedish Lapland
Sami culture, rapids, boreal forests and access to large national parks characterize the lapon interior.
To understand what Jokkmokk and Lapland are, you have to look at Ájtte, Storforsen and Gammelstad. These places give us a view of a territory marked by forests, riverscapes, mountain reliefs and natural spaces and allow us to move from emblematic sites to more intimate stages.
See all
For a stay of 4 to 9 days, it is better to balance visits and travel times. Also to be anticipated: conditions to be checked according to the season. A car is usually the easiest way to connect the different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be verified step by step.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
