STF Anaris Mountain cabin

The cabin is a rustic building from 1930 with ten beds, divided between a four-bed room and a six-bed room. There is also a host cabin. The four-bed room also serves as a safety room with an emergency phone. Dogs are allowed there, and there is a folding dog crate to use if needed.

There is good mobile coverage for operators that use the Telia network, although the signal strength can sometimes vary. You can pay by card and in cash. Swish may work, depending on your subscription. Fishing licences are also available here.

Anaris is a popular area for fishing in both winter and summer. From the cabin you can climb Stora Anahögen, 1,433 metres above sea level, the nearest high-mountain peak. The winter trail towards Vallbo crosses a high mountain pass with fine views over Vattensjöarna and Ottfjället. A summer trail runs through Hällådalen to Issjödalen, Lunndörren and Vallbo.

Between Höglekardalen and Anaris lies the Sami camp of Hosjöbottnarna, where you can experience living Sami culture. Near the cabin, a couple of turf huts, Anariskåtorna, also remain from an earlier Sami camp. There are also traces of reindeer corrals built from interwoven birch trunks.
