Lapland

Employed in an outdoor activity business, I was granted an opportunity in September of 2015 to undertake a trek 200 kilometres within the Arctic circle in Swedish Lapland, hiking from Abisko to Björkliden, visiting the Låktatjåkko Mountain Lodge, and spending time with the native Sami.

The route was prime for viewing the Northern Lights, and crossed dramatic variations in terrain, from river valleys to glacial lakes.
