What to do and see in Kiruna, Norrbotten County: The Best Sightseeing Tours

December 14, 2021 Kelli Reichel

There is much to do in Kiruna for both outdoor adventure seekers and city dwellers alike. Given its close proximity to the Arctic Circle, Kiruna is a winter wonderland for skiing, snowboarding, dogsledding, ice fishing and snowmobile jumping. Its location also means nonstop sunlight in June and July and easy access to Kebnekaise, the highest mountain in Sweden. Kiruna Kyrka, the city's old church, is one of the largest wooden buildings in Sweden.

We took the photography tour with Dimitry. Didn't see aurora this time, but received a nice photography lesson how to shoot auroras. In addition there was plenty of communication between the guide and other guides or hotel (not sure) to pick the likely spot. I would recommend it.
