The Kungsleden trail is a 6-day adventure through some of Sweden's most beautiful scenery, from Hemavan to Ammarnäs in the Vindelfjäll nature reserve, one of the country's largest protected areas. Its purpose is to preserve a South Sami mountain area that contains almost all the natural types characteristic of the Swedish mountains.

This Signature Trail covers rugged terrain and showcases a variety of ecosystems, from mountain birch forests and quiet lakes to U-shaped valleys and towering ridges. The route takes you through remote areas with stunning views of the surrounding peaks and wetlands where you can see the unspoilt wildlife of this miniature Lapland.

Throughout the trek you will be staying in comfortable, well-equipped cabins, ensuring a truly immersive experience. Each cabin has a small shop where you can buy food and mountain equipment, so you can pack light. An unforgettable experience for adventurous hikers, combining intense and rewarding stages with the peace and quiet of Sweden's remote countryside.
