Introduction

Abisko National Park sits in Sweden's far north, in Lapland, set around Lake Torneträsk and the Nuolja valley, protected since around 1910. Its famous 'Abisko blue hole' — clear skies above the valley even when clouds cover the surrounding peaks — makes it one of the world's most reliable places to see the aurora. The Kungsleden (King's Trail) begins here, and in summer the midnight sun draws long lines of hikers.
