STF Vistas Mountain cabin

This was the site of Vistaskåtan, the first tourist facility in the Kebnekaise area. Today’s cabins stand on the same spot, beautifully nestled in the birch forest of Vistasdalen.

There are two guest cabins with a total of 30 beds. Guest cabin 65 has two rooms with ten beds each. Each room has a kitchen and two sleeping alcoves. The host lives in the middle room.

Guest cabin 33, the old cabin, has two rooms with six and four beds. The smaller room also serves as a safety room, and you can stay there with your dog. The emergency phone is also in this room.

There is no mobile coverage at the cabin. Up on the marked rocky knoll on the other side of the stream, you can usually at least send and receive text messages.

Please note that you can only pay in cash at Vistas. It is not possible to pay by Swish or card.

In summer, many people take the boat from Nikkaluokta into Vistasdalen. This saves you 7–13 kilometres of hiking, depending on how far the boat can go. That depends on how much water there is in the river.

From STF Vistas you can take both shorter walks and more demanding full-day hikes. A couple of kilometres from the cabin there is a waterfall. If you get really close, you can experience the spectacle from the flat rock slab.

Also try the steep path towards Mårma. You will feel it in your legs, but the magnificent view is a fine reward.

If you are continuing to STF Nallo and want to take a different route, you can hike around the Räittatjåkka massif. The route passes through a very beautiful high-alpine landscape.

If you walk up to the height by Vassiloamijaure, above the cabin, you will get an incredible view over the area.

The valley is rich in reindeer, moose and ptarmigan. In winter, you may also see tracks of wolverine and lynx.
