Doppel-Sesselbahn Nuolja, Abisko, Schweden / Sweden, 12.9.2015
Sesselbahn Abisko - Nuolja (Nationalpark Abisko - Schweden)
Mitten im Nationalpark von Abisko im nördlichen Lappland befindet sich eine Seilbahn der besonderen Art. Was auf den ersten Blick wie eine gewöhnliche Sesselbahn aussieht, ist nichts anderes als die letzte original erhaltene Sesselbahn des Schweizer Konstrukteurs Karl Brändle.
Auf einer Strecke von rund zwei Kilometern erschliesst die Anlage mit ihren zweiplätzigen Sesseln den Berg Nuolja, auf dem sich die Aurora Sky Station befindet. In den dunklen Wintermonaten können von hier oben die Nordlichter beobachtet werden. Sobald die Sonne im Frühling wieder aufgeht, bieten sich an den verschneiten Hängen unter der Sesselbahn aber auch zahlreichen Abfahrtsvarianten für Skifahrer.
Doch auch im Sommer lohnt sich eine Fahrt mit der Sesselbahn nicht nur aufgrund ihrer technischen Einmaligkeit. Von der Bergstation bietet sich eine prächtige Aussicht auf den Nationalpark Abisko und den über 70 Kilometer langen Torneträsk-See. Etwas getrübt wird der Ausblick wie so oft im schwedischen Lappland aber durch die unzähligen Stechmücken, die auf dem Berg herumschwirren.
Die ganze Geschichte auch zum Nachlesen:

Butterfly & Bird Trip to Abisko, Arctic Sweden
Between July 5 - 10 we had a nice vacation up to the arctic region of Sweden, aiming for arctic butterflies. Also hoping for some arctic birds as a bonus. We flew from Stockholm to Kiruna, rented a car and then a hotel room for the first night.
Next day we spent on various locations around Kiruna, at one of them we met our old travel companion; Kjetil Jensen and his daughter Irene. They had plans for Abisko, like us, and they wanted the helicopter ride to Boarrasachokka too. We decided to do it together the next day, the more the merrier and cheaper...
The day for the helicopter ride was sunny, perfect butterfly weather! Riding the chopper was a dream come true for me, so I was grinning like an idiot the whole time and filmed nonstop. Well at the top we got all our desired arctic butterfly species, like Highland Clouded Yellow, Polar Fritillary and Arctic Grizzled Skipper.
The views was stunning, the company was great, we really had a Top Of The World day!
After a few hours the chopper returned to our fjell top and fetched us back to our hotels, both in 500 meters distance from the chopper pad.
This is were Part 1 ends.
Part 2 will cover the rest of the stay, spent mostly at Njulla top, you can go up there with a chairlift. We did. Up there we hunted down some more of our Arctic target butterflies, and birds will also appear.

Faith in Nuolja Restored!
Efter bara ett och ett halft års väntan så fick jag äntligen flyga på Nuolja! Detta är ett av dagens åtta korta flyg!
Flatljus som gör att man inte ser nästan något alls. Jag såg knappt var marken var förrän jag var en meter ifrån den...
After only one and a half years of waiting I finally got to fly on Nuolja! This is one of the days eight short flights.
Flat light makes it almost impossible to see anything at all. I almost couldn't see the ground until I was just a meter above it...

Swiming in Torneträsk 5th Jan 2019
This dry January is going well so far but does seem to have got me doing something I never thought I would do which is going into lake Torneträsk in January.
This lake is 200km North of the Arctic circle and at 400m is Swedens biggest mountain lake. Therefore in January is very cold both in and out of the water.
I did a quick video of my friend Rachel and me on todays swim.
Bizarre how the brain can go from I'm never going to do that to this is good fun!
Once you master the forced panic attack of being in 1C water it's very exhilarating!
Ep. 7 Hunddalshytterna - Trailrunning in Swedish Lapland
This video has been long over due. Like 2 months. This a skitrip I did with my sister when we stayed around Abisko. To get to Hunddalshytterna in Norway you cross the border via train and then cross-country roughly 25km. The further in we got to the valley the better the weather got. In the end absolutely perfect! Untouched snow since it had been snowing a lot in the days before. One of the best experiences of 2017 so far!
Njulla's top, Abisko: can't see nothing :p
