2025 Kiruna Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in April)

We went to supermarket at the village nearby, and joined the snowmobile tour at night. We slept at the aurora igloo and that was excellent.

#favouriteitinerary Kiruna Airport is a small airport in Sweden. We took a taxi from Abisko for an early morning red-eye flight to Stockholm Arlanda with SAS Airlines. It was on a cold winter morning, and snow was piling up outside, creating a true arctic atmosphere. Inside, a small café offered breakfast for travellers needing a warm start. The boarding hall was compact but bustling with people. Despite the crowd, the boarding process was impressively smooth and fast.

#auroralight Attraction: Sweden' Aurora light Location: Kiruna City, Sweden. Best time to visit: Autumn - Spring Due to its lanscape and infrastructure, sweden is considered to be one of the best places to observe the Northern Lights. Last year, I had a memorable and successful Aurora-light experience in Sweden, and below, I wanted to share with you the tips to have a successful experience: - Go very far in the north of the country and away from the cities or the towns. This will increase the possiblity of having successfull experience. - Avoid staying in cities. Street lights may affect the Aurora light experience. - Do not select dense forest or deep observation points. - Best time for the experience is Spring and Autumn for more stable weather conditions. How to be in a good place for the experience? - Travel by train from Stockholm to the city Kiruna, which is very far in the north, where the experience will be at its best. It was a perfect and amazing trip, and you should try this experience once you are in Sweden. #auroralight #kiruna #sweden #myhiddengems

#auroralight Nestled in the heart of Swedish Lapland, Kiruna is one of the best places in the world to witness the breathtaking Aurora Borealis. As the northernmost town in Sweden, Kiruna offers a prime location for chasing the Northern Lights, thanks to its minimal light pollution and long, dark winter nights. From September to March, the skies above Kiruna come alive with shimmering waves of green, pink, and violet light. The auroras are caused by charged particles from the sun colliding with Earth’s atmosphere, but no scientific explanation can fully capture the wonder of standing beneath this celestial display. Kiruna offers a range of unforgettable ways to experience the aurora. Join a guided aurora safari and venture into the Arctic wilderness by snowmobile or husky sled, where the vast, open skies offer perfect conditions for aurora spotting. For a more serene experience, watch the lights dance from the comfort of a glass igloo or a cozy wooden cabin surrounded by snow-covered forests. Beyond the aurora, Kiruna is a winter wonderland of activities. Explore the famous ICEHOTEL in nearby Jukkasjärvi, try your hand at dog sledding, or immerse yourself in Sami culture. Each adventure feels like part of a magical Arctic fairytale. Seeing the Northern Lights in Kiruna is more than a visual feast—it’s a profound connection to the beauty of nature. With its remote charm and surreal landscapes, Kiruna offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to chase the lights and create unforgettable memories.

After leaving the nature-filled Abisko, we took a two-hour train ride to Kiruna. This town is very peaceful and quiet, with famous attractions like the Ice Church and snow fields. Walking into the city, I was shocked by the snow that reached up to my waist. For three consecutive days, I truly experienced the abundance and annoyance of snow. The hotel owner mentioned that the snow can reach up to 4 meters at its peak, and it snows for seven months a year. One night, there was a major aurora borealis display, but unfortunately, it was snowing heavily in Kiruna that night. P.S. Make sure to secure your headphones; it took me a while to dig them out after they fell into the snow.

Today, I'm sharing my experience hunting for the Northern Lights in Kiruna, Sweden. We flew to Stockholm and took a sleeper train to Kiruna (in the north). Anyone who goes there must bring a lot of warm clothing because it's really cold. The day we go hunting must be a dark day. We have to leave the city to look at places without lights and it must be a clear day. When we went, we looked at the app and saw that the intensity of the Aurora was quite high. But there were also a lot of clouds, so we couldn't see the Northern Lights. When we could see the Northern Lights, they were small and disappeared quickly. LOL. When we looked with the naked eye, they were white lines. We had to aim for a long time. We used the iPhone's camera the whole way until we could see the green lines. Because we were fighting for our lives, we sat in the car for several hours. The weather was very cold, -20 degrees. The later it got, the colder it got. #AuroraMagic #HuntingForAurora #Kiruna

Review of dog sledding in Kiruna Sweden from beginning to end 🐶 A must-do activity when visiting a city with snow is to ride a dog sled!! Start by making an appointment with the farm owner (when we went, there was only our tour group of 8 people, no one else mixed in). Then the farm will send a car to pick us up in front of our accommodation at the agreed time and drive us to the farm. It's very convenient. When we arrive at the farm, they will let us change into the clothes they have prepared for us, which will be worn over the clothes we are wearing. There are boots, hats, gloves, and face masks. 🧦🧤🧣👕👖 The kind that can sit and chill in the middle of -10 ❄️❄️ temperatures without feeling cold at all 555555 After changing, there will be an officer to explain how to ride. 1 sled can seat 2-3 people. After pulling halfway, the dog will stop to rest and we will move to sit in the house, warm ourselves by the fire. There will be tea and snacks for us to eat + take pictures with the dog. After that, we will take a ride back through the frozen lake and the church. The atmosphere is sooo good! ⏰️⏰️Time spent on the ride ~ 1.30 hrs. 💸💸Price per person: 1300kr (3.4 baht/kr) In case of cash, if paying by card, 1400kr P.S. Someone I know did a Norway-Sweden tour. He helped book a dog sled. If anyone is interested, please contact me for contact details. #dog sled #must-visit activities #kiruna #sweden

💙Share a series of photos from a trip to Northern Europe. Sunset glow, seeing the true lonely planet. This belongs to the unique coldness and pride of the Nordic. 💙In Kiruna, Sweden, located in the Arctic Circle, the sunset begins at 3 pm. The evening glow dyes the entire sky, with a leisurely and dreamlike beauty. 💙The vastness of the universe will eventually lead to loneliness. A solo trip always allows one to experience their own growth, Some unexpected moments calmly settle in the mind. White, simple, quiet. Perhaps, what memories leave behind is what you want to remember. 💙I hope everyone can have time to stop and think, no matter where you are, you can find yourself. 💙The air is cold, but the stunning scenery is incredibly healing. Grateful for every little surprise encountered during travels. The world is so big, let's go see it together 🌍. ➕Follow 🐷, share the latest travel information every day 💙

Go to the Nordic snowfield and live with the Sami. Remember the magical Lapland in the cartoon "Niels on the Goose Travel"? Lapland refers to the north of the Arctic Circle, from Norway, Sweden, northern Finland to the northwest corner of Russia, it is known as "the last piece of pure land in Europe." The people who live in Lapland are the Lapps - they have lived on this pure land for thousands of years, but they call themselves Sami. Like the Inuit of Greenland, the Sami are the last indigenous people in Europe. They live in the snowfields, rely on domesticated reindeer for their livelihoods, and they also dig deep ice in the winter, so their food sources are salmon, reindeer meat and autumn harvested potatoes, living in the Sami tents. Enjoy the bonfire and hot springs, and the feeling of happiness comes to life.

Kiruna relies on a huge lake called Lake Rosa. In winter, the lake will not freeze. The deep dark green lake is pressed against the shore, and the snow-covered mountains are far away. The scenery is good. Its just that we have barely seen the sun in Sweden for a few days, the thick clouds are pressing low, the road is very rare, passing through a whole piece of bare forest, and only our figure, the scene is quite There is a feeling of "doomsday" movies. To be honest, I don't want to stroll outside. I want to know that I am the southernmost person in the South. In the winter in northern Europe, I can stay up to ten minutes in the outdoor. Moreover, it is really bad to freeze on the road. Rosa Lake is very suitable for taking some "emotional" films. After a while, I was very keen to take a photo of the same scene to compare and see who's technology is better. But every time I lose, who makes the opponent's model too strong, how to shoot is good.

Arriving at Kiruna Airport, bursts of snow and snow, the outside is already a snowy world. Later, Lao Meng said from the window that he saw a light, and ran out to see it. It was really a green light belt. Even the photographer frunk who was resident in the guesthouse came in, let us Pack up the equipment and take us to a better place to watch the aurora. Although it is cloudy weather, but still can see the green light in the air, and a little starlight as the background, this moment, in addition to excitement and moved. After all, I had a friend who spent tens of thousands of dollars running to Norway for a few days. Actually, the traces of aurora were not seen, and we were so twisted and twisted that we could finish our biggest wish this year. Look up at these green elves, like a light tulle, fluttering in the wind.

It seems that people subconsciously think that the fleeting beauty is more romantic and valuable. The light of the sunrise, the afterglow of the sunset, the time of flowering and flowering, the moment of fireworks bloom, the beauty of snow and ice...
