Björkliden

Björkliden Fjällby lies 250 km inside the Arctic Circle in majestic Swedish Lapland - Europe’s last true wilderness.  Björkliden Fjällby has been outdoors types for 100 years because of its wild setting and its winter and summer activities. Big it isn’t and this is where its charm lies.

In wintertime you can enjoy skiing of all types and some of the best heli-skiing anywhere; you can cover 5 mountains and 10,000 metres altitude in one day here. And at Svarta Björn (aptly translating as ‘Black Bear’) you can enjoy world class off-pist skiing. There are five ski lifts, including 2 for children and there is a kid’s ski school. In and around Björkliden Fjällby you can also enjoy dog-sledding, ice-fishing and snowmobile.
The incomparable Northern Lights dance and cascade above in the heavens in winter and the Midnight Sun brings constant daylight to the region for 100 days over the short summer. But what a summer it is and you can enjoy hiking, mountain-biking camping and fishing up here in Lapland. The air is pure, the lakes are crystal clear and the views are unspoiled by man’s touch. There is a choice of hotel, log cabin, ski lodge and mountain station accommodation and the local restaurants serve Norrland specialities.
Björkliden Fjällby – now you know too.


Northern Sweden

Northern Sweden is a vast landscape of towering alpine peaks and endless vistas of pine forest, Polar plains, meadows and glaciers. Its eastern edge is fringed by a rolling coastline, peppered by islands and skerries. No description of Northern Sweden is complete without mentioning Swedish Lapland - Europe’s last remaining wilderness.

Lovers of the outdoors life will love northern Sweden’s legendary national parks; Abisko and Sarek being two outstanding examples. Northern Sweden is also the ancestral home of the Sami, the indigenous people of the region, whose unique traditions and culture thankfully thrive today. Bear, elk, the wolverine, the golden eagle and the rare Arctic Fox have their home here in Northern Sweden. As if these natural riches were not enough, this the land of the Midnight Sun and the staggeringly beautiful Northern Lights,

We could go on – and on.
