Kungsleden Kvikkjokk – Jäkkvik

Kvikkjokk-Jäkkvik, 80 km, is one of the most varied stretches of the Kungsleden. The path, unlike the stretch north of Kvikkjokk, is not used often. The mountain consists of foothills and the view from them extends many kilometres. Between areas on the barren mountain top, the hiker goes through lush birch forests and old forest areas near the mountains with an occasional large pine tree. A bit up from Lake Sakkat, the Kungsleden goes through sparse birch forests and meadows, a landscape likening that of a park, made totally by nature. The Arctic Circle is eight kilometres north of Vuonatjviken.

Five kilometres northwest of Jäckvik, at Kapellströmmarna, there is a 300 meter stretch of water with a row boat available.

Kungsleden Kvikkjokk – Saltoluokta

The stretch between Kvikkjokk and Saltoluokta, 75 km counting the two waterways, follows the border of Sarek. The trail goes over the foothills and valleys with a virgin and birch forest. Along the path are three of STF’s mountain cabins. It is popular to schedule a day outing from Aktse to Skierfe in Rapa Valley with its panoramic view over the Laidaure Delta and the high mountains along the valleys.
