Sarek: first time in the ultimate Swedish wilderness (extended cut)
Sarek National Park is a national park in Jokkmokk Municipality, Lapland in the north of Sweden. Established in 1909–1910, the park is one of the oldest national parks in Europe. The shape of the Sarek park is roughly circular with an average diameter of about 50 km. The park has about 200 peaks over 1,800 m and there are approximately 100 glaciers in the Sarek National Park.
Sarek is a popular area for experienced hikers and mountaineers. There are no marked trails or accommodations and only two bridges aside from those in the vicinity of its borders. The area is among those that receives the heaviest rainfall in Sweden, making hiking dependent on weather conditions. It is also intersected by turbulent streams that are hazardous to cross without proper training. The delta of the Rapa River is considered one of Europe‘s most noted views and the summit of Skierfe mountain offers an overlook of that glacial valley.
In a group of three, we pursued zig-zag crossing of the national park, having started in Kvikkjokk and finishing in Saltoluokta after ten days of hiking (and some rowing, too). Here, one really relies on himself/herself: no marked trails (though there are some footpaths), no huts or cabins, frequent river crossings and muddy terrain of river wetlands.
Still, without any doubt, this place is a deep north paradise: most likely, you will have it for yourselves, with a very limited number of other people around. High mountain peaks covered by majestic glaciers, beautiful river deltas, birch woods, reindeer and - if you are lucky - elks.

Midnight sun over the Laponian area near Jokkmokk and the Lule river. Jokkmokk or is located in Norrbotten County, just North of the arctic circle. The Sámi name Jåhkåmåhkke means River's Curve.
The world heritage site Laponia is a joining together of six large nature areas and reserves of which Muddus, Sarek, Stora Sjöfallets and Padjelanta are the best known. But it didn't happen just like that, a lot of thought went into it. After careful consideration a committee of wise elders came to the decision that this area had a unique cultural and natural character. Laponia was a fact, with the footnote that it was both a natural and cultural heritage site.
