The Environment

The Jokkmokk environment offers a huge and overwhelming experience of nature. All the nature you can imagine can be found in the region: dense forests, mountain birch, wide stretched mires, clear white topped mountains with deep valleys, pure clean lakes with salmon, trout and char and beautiful, amazing scenery.

The air is pure and you can drink directly from the many rivers, lakes and streams without fear of pollution. There are wild roaming game animals including elk (European moose), reindeer, wolverines, lynx, bears, wolves and hundreds of varieties of birds including eagles and migrating mute swans.

The Fishing is considered to be some of the best available to fishermen today.  There are many varieties of fish available in thousands of well stocked lakes and some of the largest pike on record have been caught in Swedish Lapland.

The tradition of protecting and preserving nature has meant that many unusual plants grow in the unique Jokkmokk habitat together with the prolific birch and pine trees. There are all types of outdoor sports available throughout the year including walking, hiking, golf, snowboarding and skiing, hunting, dog sledding and many more.
