Kungsleden Trailhead (Abisko National Park)

Highlight • Trail

Here, in addition to the Kungsleden, the Rallarvägen begins, which was laid out as a construction site road during the construction of the Ofotbahn. Along this route there are many remains from the construction period of the railway line, but also from WWII, when this railway was of strategic importance as a means of transporting iron ore.

The Kungsleden is a 470 km long-distance trail and it starts at Abisko. Absolutely beautiful up here.

Abiskojåkka Canyon

Highlight • Canyon

A great photo opportunity! Here the river has eaten its way so deep into the rock that a small gorge has formed.

Access to the waterfall

July 30, 2022,Von Abisko-Tourist entlang des Kungsleden und zurück
Now, at the end of July 2022, it was not possible to cross the Nissonjohka at the ford. Therefore the tour went back to the Kungsleden.

Unfortunately, there were two errors when recording (deep craters).

It may still be a little early in the year for the Kungsleden, but I could dream a little about starting or arriving here at some point.
