The guide will help anyone navigate any little obstacles, and walking poles can be provided if requested. Please let us know if you have any physical limitations that would make it difficult for you to keep up with a group of ten guests and one guide. The age limit of guests joining our tour is a minimum of 7 years old, due to the length and amount of time you will be out hiking.

Fantastic Morning Hike in Abisko
We took the morning hike this fall in Abisko and had a fantastic time! It’s a great family-friendly tour that serves as the perfect introduction to Abisko National Park and the surrounding area. Our guide was also very knowledgeable about the local wildlife – the children especially enjoyed identifying different animal tracks in the snow. For more experienced hikers and those wanting to explore on their own, the tour provides a great orientation, and the tour guide is an excellent source of in-depth knowledge for the many trails available. Highly recommended!

 

Guided hike in Abisko National Park
Our family, six in all, went on the (hike)? Our ages ranged from 9 to 70+ years.
Our guide, Chris, arrived well prepared with trekking poles and shoe/boot grips for each participant after an unexpected early snowfall the days before. Each one of us thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
He was very knowledgable about the flora, fauna, geology and history of the region. Always inviting questions, he was very courteous and respectful to each one of us.
Lights Over Lapland with Chris as our guide gave that little extra that made our experience very special, and memorable.
