The Winteradventure Starts in Abisko.
Winter at Abisko Mountain Station begins in December, when we welcome guests from all over the world, the world’s best place to see the northern lights. There is something truly magical with the northern lights and looking out for the northern lights during mid-winter in Abisko is something very special. The Aurora Sky Station, on our home mountain Nuolja, is quiet and dark and waiting for you.
Christmas is celebrated according to tradition and then it’s peace, enjoyment and happiness together with a number of fun activities daily that prevail. The New Year offers luxurious days filled with joy, hope and perhaps some new vows.
The ski season gets going in February with white expanses, alpine ski tours, ski touring, off-piste skiing, nice cross-country tracks, the northern lights and après ski. Each month offers up a variety of experiences. In March, the new snow on the mountain is fluffy and thick and the sun gradually begins to warm. In April, the days are long and the sun will tan your nose. In May, the sun shines from the sky all day and night. The snow is like sugar and think about this wild idea: you ski at midnight and it’s still light outside!
The winter is also the dreamtime of year for our mountain guides, when they’re in the mountain almost all day. We have several courses for you who really enjoy skiing as well as an alpine ski touring weekend Abisko-Narvik, avalanche course, off-piste skiing, or why not try a telemark course this winter. Or join one of our popular ski mountaineering weeks, when we go to Norway and try for a 1,000 metres of vertical drop in wonderful off-piste skiing each day.
Most welcome to STF Abisko this winter to enjoy a superb life in the mountains. |
