Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

I hiked from Abisko Turistation to Vakkotavare; I wish I could sum up a week of magnificent views, great craic, and peace that being on this trail gave me into a neat paragraph. Instead, I'll just say: having no cell phone service for a week was the greatest gift. Bring waterproofs, eat all the foraged berries, split your own wood, jump in the cold lake mid-sauna, and do your research ahead of time! Teusajaure and Tjaktja were my faves. Also, consider flying if the trains are being a hot mess. It may cost more, but you won't be delayed eight hours or given a 2 buses plus 4 trains option if the booking system is glitching on selling overnight train tickets.

We leave Abisko to Nikkaluokta, 104 kilometers from an unrivalled natural environment. Secured disconnection without coverage for more than 6 days. A worthwhile reset, especially if you like adventure and unwind on vacation. Children recommended for older than 7 years, because if you do the route from shelter to shelter, a day you have to walk a minimum of 14 kilometers, and there is slope, not everything is flat as it seems in some blogs. You can buy food in some shelters, not all have shops. The good thing about taking the food is that you know what you expect, and the bad thing is the weight. I recommend 100%!!!!

Everything here is immense with expanses as far as the eye can see. I did the northernmost part. I recommend deviating from the kungsleden from time to time to discover other areas.

Some of the best hiking trails in the nordics, most cabins have a sauna, where one can relax after the journey of the day. Accessible starting points by public transport, prices quite good for nordics, some cabins are more barebones than others, suggest looking up each one and try to skip the ones that lack the amenities you want. Also go south to north as most seem to go soutwards, to meet new people each day.

Ni får ta det för vad det är, men detta är en recension efter att ha gått en enklare promenad från Abisko turiststation, en liten bit in på Kungsleden och sedan tillbaka till Abisko turiststation. Men också denna lilla tur var fantastiskt vacker, med kanjonen och all övrig vacker natur, Blåhakarna sjöng när vi forcerade spångarna och vattnet forsade vilt i älvarna. Mycket härlig naturupplevelse, även om det inte innebar någon "äkta" vandring.

Wir sind 300km auf dem nördlichen Abschnitt von Abisko nach Jackvikk gewandert. Der Kungsleden ist ein Muss für jeden Weitwanderer. Dieser Weg erfordert keine besonderen Wander- oder Klettererfahrungen. Durchhaltevermögen und passendes Schuhwerk sind sehr ratsam. Unterwegs gibt es einige bewirtschaftete Hütten, die allerdings nicht ganz billig sind. Daher unbedingt Zelt und Verpflegung mitführen. Was gibt es schöneres als in der Tundra mit sich allein zu sein oder zu zweit;)
Regen und Mücken können und sind teilweise zu ertragen und nicht änderbar. Der Weg ist gut markiert. Es sollte einige Zeit für das An- und Abfahren mit Bus & Bahn eingerechnet werden. Weitere Infos gibt´s auf unserer Seite "HikingExperience".

im an experienced walker,many great trails ive done but after developing lung problems i needed something that was easier than my normal holidays in the alps.1200 metres of ascent in one week walking from Nikkalouta to Abisko compared to that in a day in the alps.
Ive never been in a helicopter so got the morning 8 minute flight from Nikkalouta to Kebnakaisie,great fun. Time to start walking.
Observations?
1) Its cheaper to pre pay for your acomodation if using the excellent mountain huts, google stf mountain huts Kungsladen and click on the british flag. Become a member of an international youth hostel network( Y.H.A. in U.K) for even greater savings.
2) Dont be a moron and spend a £1000 on a travel company trip, my trip cost £158 using the same beds in the same huts. I met a family of 4 who spent £3200!!
3) Walking south to north is quiter, north to south you will be in a stream of walkers peak season,but you may like that??
4)The hike is one of my very favourites,less mountainous than the alps /lake district but solitude and beauty is world class.
The language in the mountain huts is English,the dutch guy will speak to the swiss guy who will speak to the Swedish guy in English.
Singi and Tsaki hut dont have shops/saunas the rest do.My pack weight net was 7 kilos.
You dont need a sleeping bag or cooker as bedding and gas stoves are provided.
September is best for amazing autumn colours,weather lack of crowds and lack of mosquitoes. Early season June/July snow and mossies.

BASIC DETAILS
My sons (ages 22 and 19) hiked the trail July 2019. I am 51 years old.
Day before the hike: Our airplane arrived in Kiruna at 11:00 am. We then took the bus to the central bus station, and walked to Stejk Street Food. We had the reindeer subs, which were wonderful. After eating, we went back to the bus station and got on the bus to Abisko (this bus is only available twice per day, so make sure that you know the schedule). We stayed at the Abisko Touristation, which is at the start of the Kungsleden. I highly recommend staying there. The cleanliness, accommodations, and convenience makes it the best place to stay before starting the trail.
Day 1: We started from Abisko in the morning between 5:00 and 6:00 am, and we reached Abiskojaure around 10:30 am. The trail between Abisko and Abiskojaure (15 kilometers, 9.5 miles) is quite easy, so we felt very good. After a break, we decided to continue to Alesjaure (21 kilometers, 13 miles). We had done a lot of research, but we did not imagine the trail being covered with so many rocks. Our progress was slower because of the rocks and the times we had to remove our shoes to ford across shallow rivers. The first portion is easy, walking through birch-tree filled valleys. With various explorative detours, our distance on Day 1 was 40 kilometers, 25 miles).
Day 2: We departed from Alesjaure near 7:30 am, and we witnessed one of our favorite portions of the trail from Alesjaure to Tjaktja (12 kilometers, 7.5 miles). We will never forget our mid-morning snack as we sat on boulders surrounded by mountains, valleys, rivers, etc. Beautiful! We had a late lunch at Tjakta, and then walked to Salka (12 kilometers, 7.5 miles). This part of the trail had the most rocks of any other portion. It was during this part of the trail that we often said, "How is this considered a trail?" But, like all the other parts of the trail, it was filled with breathtaking views. We actually hiked through snow for about 200 meters. Because of all the zig-zaging between rocks/boulders, my pedometer registered at 34 kilometers, 21 miles for the day. We pitched our tent next to a river and had a great night of sleep.
Day 3: We departed from Salka early in the morning, arriving at Singi for a late lunch break (12 kilometers, 7.5 miles). The first part of that leg of the trail was easy and majestic. Then, rocks again :-). From Singi to Kebnakaise (14 kilometers, 9 miles) began with a lot of rocks and elevation. Then it involves a lot of up and down hills on the rock-covered trail. The end of that part of the trail includes a beautiful valley, more beautiful rapids, bridges, and trees (for the first time in days). Tenting is free near the Kebnakaise touristation, as long as you stay outside of the immediate location of the buildings. We found a beautiful campsite surounded by birch trees. Once again, due to all the zig-zagging through rocks and boulders, my pedometer registered more than the actual distance (36 kilometers, 22.5 miles).
Day 4: After three grueling days, we were looking forward to our shortest walk. From Kebnekaise to Nikkaluokta is 19 kilometers, 12 miles, and it is a beautiful trek. We observed that a lot of people simply hike from Nikkaluokta to Kebnekaise and back. Because Kebnekaise has a restaurant and other accommodations, this seems like a nice shorter hike (or one can take the helicopter between them for a high price). The walk was scenic and easy. We were amused that the two ends of the Abisko-Nikkaluokta are the easiest parts of the trail, giving some hikers a false sense of what is to come :-).
When we arrived in Nikkaluokta, crossing the finish line was a wonderful experience. We ate, rested, and waited about 4 hours for the next bus to Kiruna. Having cell phone coverage was nice, because I was able to reserve a room in a hotel in Kiruna. By the way, the Scandic is a great hotel in Kiruna, and it has a wonderful breakfast buffet.
OTHER PRACTICAL DETAILS
The mosquitoes are overwhelming, so bring a lot of repellent. We used deet wipes, which worked well, but we had to wipe a number of times each day. We even had to wipe on our shirts and hats, because the mosquitoes would bite through them. The worst portion of the trail for mosquitoes was between Abiskojaure and Alesjaure.
The huts can be expensive if you have multiple hikers, but they seem to be a popular option for many people.
The best equipment I had with me was trekking poles. Between all the rocks, thin boards, etc. it was a miracle that I didn't fall at all.
I'm not sure if I'd recommend hiking the trail in 3.5 days, but it is an experience that my sons and I will cherish for the rest or our lives.

I`ve been there for the trail from Nikkaluokta to Abisko and it was definitely an edventure of my life. You can just walk and still see an amazing north wilderness, enjoy breathtaking views and calm everywhere. We had a really bad weather but to warm in sauna in Salka and Alesjaure was one of the best :)
I really recommend this hike a lot

Vad finns kvar att säga om Kungsleden som inte redan är sagt? Troligen inte så mycket mer än att även en kort vandring ger en mycket fin upplevelse. Mycket lättvandrat och med forsen nära gör även en kort vandring på bara några km (ungefär 6-7 km fram och tillbaka) till en minnesvärd promenad. Det finns naturligtvis utmärkta möjligheter att stanna vid vattnet i direkt till Kungsleden och fika, eller bara njuta av naturen.

Hi, has anyone hiked the entire 440km? I would ask privately questions then.
In a same time I would like to know from where I can purchase all the trail maps including the option to have the trail in my phone for gps navigation in case it will be needed.
Thank you. I look forward to hearing from someone with some feedback. Planning the entire trail

Hello, what part of the trail do you recommend the most to hike? Planning on a 2 week vacay in this area.
Skrevet 17. august 2016
Probably best to do the Abisko-Nikkaluokta part.. About 1 week is a good pace to do it without pushing too hard. (it can be done in 5 days). Or you can continue to Vakkotavare and beyond. Check out the STF website for maps and details. Search STF Kungsleden.

No you don't need it. When I visited last summer and tried sauna, nobody wore swimsuit. I also asked a host on the sight and got clear answer NO.
Skrevet 24. juli 2016
Hi Dave, did you guys book the huts in advance. If yes, any websites you can recommend? How big are the rooms, can you get in a smaller room with 2 beds. We had a really tough time with snoring people on our first hike in Iceland last year...How much are the huts approximately?
Thanks so much!

Hello,
Tx for posting about the Kings Trail. My family are also planning to do the Abisko to Nikkaluokta route this summer. We plan to bring tents and at least do some camping in the wild. Are hikers fairly free to camp where they like - presumably away from the main trail? Also, can you advise re: cooking fuel? Can we buy fuel there, and what type? What kind of food is available at the mountain stations? (one of our sons has egg and mild allergy) Finally, do you know whether the airlines are OK with checking in bushcraft knives? Obviously we can't take these as hand luggage, but can we put them in the checked in luggage?
Many thanks for any tips and advice we can get!
Skrevet 21. januar 2015
You can use your tent pretty much anywhere. Many people camp near the huts, as you can use their cooking facilities, including cooking pots, crockery and cutlery. Hence a little less to carry. You will need to pay for the use of these - check the STF website. You get to use the huts for 2hrs in the evening and 2hrs in the morning. If the hut has a sauna, this can be used in the price. They aren't too strict on timings.... The website also tells you the price list of all food sold in the huts. These mini shops are usually every other hut. Not sure about cooking fuel - check the STF website again. Any knife, including mini penknives MUST go into the hold. They WILL remove and confiscate these.
Just for interest, we saw many people with microscopic fishing rods - short extendable rods, easy to carry and pack away. There are quite a few small lakes with fish, I gather you're allowed to fish any of them.
Hope that helps!
