About the accommodation
One of the first tourists here was Carl von Linné, who visited Kvikkjokk in 1732 while journeying through Lapland. His poetic descriptions inspired others to visit one of the greatest treasures of the mountain world. Kvikkjokk is an ideal starting point for trips through the Sarek National ParkRead more

In the restaurant, a breakfast buffet, lunch buffet and three-course dinner are served in a relaxed and warm atmosphere, and here you can eat with a fantastic view of the Kamajokk rapids and the mountains in Tarradalen. Great care is taken in the choice of raw materials and the emphasis is on locally produced products such as game, berries and char from Padjelanta National Park. After dinner, you can look out over Sarekfjällen from our beautiful “Sällskapsrum” in the old building from 1928.

Experience Kvikkjokk
Kvikkjokk is one of the oldest Swedish settlements in Lapland. In the 17th century, the mountain village was a local metropolis and a center for processing silver ore from the mine in Alkavare in Sarek. During his Lapland journey, Carl von Linné arrived in the village in 1732 via the boat route from Jokkmokk. During the trip, he collected a substantial part of the material for his systematic mapping of the mountain flora.
Next to Kvikkjokk village there are four lookout mountains. Climbers have always been able to look out over the fjällrand delta in the conifer forest belt and participated closest to the village. In the vicinity of the village, botanists meet to see the rich flora, but no expert knowledge is required to enjoy the floral splendor.
