    It's great! Our guide Mat was very attentive and showed us around the beautiful area. Afterwards, we did another route on our own, and it's an amazing area to explore. Although it says the meeting point at Abisko Tourist Station is at 10:00 and that we should be there by 12:45, the tour starts at 9:30. This is a major communication error, but luckily Mat waited for us and we were able to do it.

    I had an amazing experience on the Northern Lights hunting tour! Joey was an amazing guide, very friendly and really passionate about making sure we had the best chance possible of seeing the auroras. He also helped us set up our cameras and phones to get the best shots and took lots of amazing photos for us. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a night under the northern sky!

    Joey (the guide) and the driver have been very kind and helpful in trying to make us see the northern lights. Unfortunately the weather it wasn't very good but they have done everything they could!

Abisko Tours & Activities: Nature, Northern Lights & Adventure

Welcome to Abisko, a charming village nestled in Swedish Lapland, above the Arctic Circle. Known for its pristine natural beauty, Abisko is a gateway to wild landscapes, majestic mountains, and one of the world’s best spots to see the Northern Lights. Here, adventure and tranquility go hand in hand, promising unforgettable experiences for every traveler.

A Brief History

For centuries, the indigenous Sámi people called this region home, living closely with nature through reindeer herding and traditional crafts. With the arrival of the railway in the early 20th century, Abisko became a hub for explorers and scientists eager to study its unique subarctic environment. Today, it’s a favorite destination for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts alike.

Best Time to Visit

Winter months, especially from November to March, offer the best chances to witness the magical Aurora Borealis and enjoy snowy adventures like dog sledding and skiing. Summer brings endless daylight with the Midnight Sun, perfect for hiking and exploring lush landscapes.

Where Can I See the Northern Lights?

Abisko is world-famous for its clear skies and ideal conditions to see the Northern Lights. The most popular spot is the Aurora Sky Station, located on a mountaintop and accessible by chairlift. Guided tours give you the highest chance to witness this spectacular natural wonder.

How Do I Get There?

Abisko is well connected by train and bus from Kiruna, the nearest major town with an airport. Most visitors travel to Kiruna and then continue north by train or coach, with scenic views along the way.
