Kebnekaise – Ski touring days

Day 1 – Arrival Day
We meet at 3:00 PM at the guide office, where we will introduce ourselves, go through the week’s program, and distribute the shared equipment needed for the coming days. If you need to rent equipment, we will arrange that as well.

Afterward, we will hold an avalanche awareness clinic, so please come prepared to spend time outdoors.

Dinner is served at 7:00 PM.

Day 2
A full day in the mountains, enjoying one of the classic ski tours around the mountain station.

Day 3
A full day in the mountains. Our guides will take you to the area’s best snow conditions and most rewarding runs.

Day 4
A full day in the mountains.

Day 5
After breakfast, you are free to depart for home or extend your stay and enjoy additional tours in the area.

If the weather is poor, we can always find enjoyable alternative activities. If skiing is not suitable, we often pack crampons and ice axes and head out for ice climbing, or spend time deepening our knowledge of avalanche safety and mountain safety.

Kebnekaise – Ski Touring Days is an activity that takes place in an advanced mountain environment. By participating, guests expose themselves to a range of inherent risks, including cold weather, avalanches, falls from height, glacier falls, rockfalls, snow slides, and crevasses, among others.

Our guides are trained in wilderness first aid and will make every effort to minimize potential risks throughout the activity. However, guests should be fully aware of the nature of the environment and the risks involved.

Participants are required to bring the appropriate equipment and to follow all instructions and guidance provided by the guide at all times.

Insurance during STF activity

If you are an STF member and take part in an activity organised by STF, you are covered by accident insurance during the activity. The insurance also applies to children accompanying a member up to and including the year the child turns 15.

About the insurance

The Kebnekaise area in the Kiruna mountains is Sweden’s highest mountain region and the starting point for ascents of Kebnekaise. The landscape is characterised by high alpine terrain with glaciers, steep peaks and wide valleys.

There is an extensive trail system here, ranging from easier day trips to more demanding alpine routes. Summit tours require careful planning and proper equipment, while there are also more accessible options in the surrounding area.

The area is most commonly reached by hiking from Nikkaluokta and is part of both the northern Kungsleden trail and the Dag Hammarskjöld Trail.

Please note that the itinerary may be adjusted due to current weather and snow conditions.

Cancellations can be made up to 30 days prior to arrival. After that date, no refund will be issued for the amount paid.

If the minimum number of participants required to run the tour is not reached, the trip will be cancelled at least 30 days before the scheduled start date.
