Leave the world behind in Swedish Lapland
What makes Swedish Lapland unique and so special is that it is the last unspoiled wilderness in Europe. You can experience these Arctic Circle landscapes, flora and fauna in their natural state –proud, pristine and changing through the millennia as the ice, snow, wind, rain and sun carve out its singular features. Let MooseTravels of Luleå be your expert guide to this mythical, mystical land of the Midnight Sun and the Northern Lights.
MooseTravels is a local and experienced event/travel company that offers tailor-made guided tour packages that make the most of your visit to Swedish Lapland. Their guided tours are led by people who know this land like the back of their hands. Their single goal is to make your trip to Swedish Lapland the trip of a lifetime and to take care of all the details; leaving you to savour the splendours of this natural wonder.
Travelling in a group of a maximum of 10 people in Land Rover Defender vehicles, the whole family can enjoy a range of multi-day packages that include; bear and moose safaris, canoeing, river rafting, sea, river and lake fishing, and a killer whale safari in nearby Norway. One of the vehicles is equipped with a field kitchen and supplies for the entire trip so that you can enjoy eating al fresco on a balmy summer’s eve, perhaps with the Midnight Sun as the backdrop.
MooseTravels also arranges 1-3 hour walking trips in some of the national parks of Laponia, a UNESCO World Heritage site. You can see the deep, craggy canyons of Abisko and its abundance of wild flowers and plants, or the wild and wonderful high alpine domain of Sarek National Park.
Swedish Lapland is the ancestral home of the Sami, the indigenous people of the region who have for thousands of years tended and nurtured their herds of hardy reindeer. You can arrange to visit an old Sami settlement and get to know their culture and way of life. On the wilder side of things, you can take one of the animal safaris where you might spot bear, wolf, moose, wolverine, lynx, the very rare arctic fox, reindeer and perhaps even the golden eagle. With a MooseTravels expert guide at your side there’s a fair chance that you’ll see most of these wild animals.
Depending on the guided tour you choose you could be staying in a quality hotel, cosy log cabin or traditional Sami tipee. To say that the spectacular, peaks, lakes, forests and plains in this wonderful wilderness are ‘breathtaking’ does not do them justice and under the expert guidance of MooseTravels you can experience and discover this last wilderness of Europe.
