Ajtte Museum

Reviewed By tobyc161 - Sweden, null

An absolute gem of a venue. The museum itself offers a great range of exhibits and a great insight into Sami life, culture and history as well as information about the Norbotten and Laponia region and history. The staff are wonderful, well informed, friendly and speak excellent Swedish, English and also Sami. They attached restaurant offers some great meals including local delicacies. The gift shop is one of the best (in terms of goods and prices) in the area. As a regional guide, I frequently take groups to this museum and often book the 'guided tour' that is available. I would highly recommend this, there is a charge, but with a group of 7+ it is only very slightly more expensive than the standard entrance fee, so is well worth it! The venue is also great for kids!

When a very long river as the Tornea goes to the Botnian gulf, then you have some very steep jumps in various localtion. Kukkolaforsen is the most interesting one: amazing fishing spot and hiking place. Suggestion: go for it from the Swedish side as it is more spectacular.
