Laponia World Heritage is unique for its natural and cultural values. Here the indigenous people of the region, Sámi, are active in both reindeer herding in the area as well as being a part of governing the World Heritage Site. Explore the area during five days through self-guided hikes.
Hiking is a great way of discovering more of the arctic nature where you can follow several marked trails in various difficulties. The summer in this area means vivid nature and great chances for spotting animals that inhabit the area. It’s the time of the year when reindeer graze from the rich mountainsides and nature literally explodes under the midnight sun. The berries growing along the way are filled with energy and you can refill your water bottle with clean water straight from the streams.
During five days you hike in accordance to your own choice and ability in various mountain environments. Along the way you stay overnight in mountain huts, total of four night, and the final night will be spent at Saltoluokta Mountain Station Lodge where you can enjoy a sauna and a 3-course dinner made from local produce.
This is a great way to explore Laponia World Heritage at your own pace with great experiences to bring back home.
