Björkliden Ski Holidays
Summary
- Family Friendly
- Non-Ski Activities
- Quick Transfer Time
A magical location with all-ability skiing, eclectic winter activities and a high chance of seeing the Northern Lights.
At the gateway to Lapland, Björkliden sits 200km north of the Arctic Circle, on the edge of Abisko National Park - one of the best places in the world to experience the Northern Lights. With views over frozen lakes and the U-shaped Lapporten Mountain, ski holidays in Björkliden feel truly special.
The ski area’s confidence-building slopes are ideal for families and first-timers, or there are some steep blacks for the more experienced. For a greater sense of adventure, the experts in our office suggest hiring a guide for ski-touring, off-piste terrain and heli-skiing.
Off the slopes, there’s more adventure to be had, with dogsledding and snowmobile tours to one of Sweden's highest mountain lodges, as well as trips to one of the country’s longest cave systems. For an extra special stay, the world famous ICEHOTEL® is an easy daytrip away.
Every holiday is tailor-made, just for you.
