Kiruna(Sweden) Things to do (Info, Links)
Studying in Sweden is a boon for an explorer like me. My second travel video tells the chronicles of my adventurous journey at Kiruna, a small town in the far north of Sweden above the Arctic Circle, where the summer sun shows his face for two months only while at winter, the city turns up a white wonderland.
The polar nights satisfy the wanderers with the most intense northern lights around the place but often go fade away to disappoint the travelers. The further north you go, and the clearer the nights are, the better your chances of experiencing aurora borealis. Don’t forget to check the weather forecast before making your trip to increase your chances, but keep in mind that they can’t be precisely predicted. It is very difficult to predict the northern light view probability months before when you really plan for the trip and book hotels and flight tickets. If you are adventure lover, I can assure you that activities like snowmobile and dogsledding would not disappoint you even if you don’t see the most spectacular northern light.
I had my visit in Kiruna during November, when the temperature drops down to (-15 to -20 degree) and the Lapland remains snow-covered making it tempting for the most adventurous Arctic activities like snowmobile safaris, snowshoeing, dogsledding, and moose safari with horses. Snowmobile tours offer the incredibly venturous ways to pave around the snow and explore the snowy city. Ice hotel is undoubtedly one of the famous attractions of Kiruna. The masterpiece, its furnishings and even the glasses are sculpted of ice. This fascinating structure is rehabilitated each winter. Dogsledding is another reward for the travellers. Sleds are drawn by friendly and beautiful Alaskan huskies. It is a thrilling experience altogether speeding through the forests and across the frozen lakes and rivers at Kiruna.
In a nutshell, the Lapland had been a perfect recipe for romantic getaways and of course a life-time experience for me. The adventurous activities, tranquil nature and plenty of fresh air stored in this small town melted all my cares away and blessed me a dream coming true.
In my opinion, the best time to visit Kiruna is February during the winter and July during summer. Proper cloths are necessary when you are visiting Kiruna. During the winter temperature could be -40 degree. Therefore, brace yourself before you visit there.

Camp Ripan in Kiruna, Sweden: A Great Travel Destination Above the Arctic Circle
Head above the arctic circle into Swedish Lapland to experience winter as only Camp Ripan knows how to do. Cozy rooms, tasty food, very friendly staff and umpteen unique activities.
Drive your own one-reindeer sleigh; snowmobile; take an always exciting dog sled ride; spa; and always watch for the Northern Lights to appear and blow your mind.
Camp Ripan is an easy 1.3 mile walk to Kiruna center and I give a big thumbs up!

It was a 15 minute walk from Camp Ripan to the center of Kiruna with many small shopping malls, grocery stores, hotels, and restaurants. We'd strap Yaktrax (traction devices) over boots and set off to buy food and explore.
Kiruna is the northernmost town in Sweden (pop: 18,148) and the town center is in the process of being moved 2 miles to the east to avoid being swallowed up by the world’s largest iron-ore mine!
