Abisko National Park – Northern Lights Capital

Located deep in Swedish Lapland, Abisko National Park is one of the best places on Earth to witness the magical Aurora Borealis. Surrounded by snow-capped peaks, frozen waterfalls, and vast alpine meadows, Abisko offers an untouched Arctic wilderness perfect for both thrill-seekers and nature lovers.

During summer, the park transforms into a hiking paradise, with trails like the Kungsleden (King’s Trail) offering panoramic views of mountains, rivers, and wildlife.
