Welcome to Riksgränsen

Welcome to Riksgränsen, Sweden’s northernmost and most legendary ski resort. Nowhere else will you be so pampered in terms of feeling of freedom, natural snow and varied skiing terrain, on both the piste and off-piste. If you haven’t been here already, you really have something to look forward to. If you have been here, you know what we are talking about. On a good day, there is no ski resort in Sweden that can match skiing in Riksgränsen.

************************************************************

Communication on Train Transport

Trafikverket is currently carrying out some scheduled track works on the route from Stockholm to Narvik in August, and many departures of VY’s night trains are affected, mainly direct trains 94 and 93. They are currently working on the departures in August and expect to release more departures but with adjustments in comfort and rerouting/departure times of the train. Follow this link to see alternative ways of transportation to us.

During BAMM, we have arranged an additional transfer on Thursday, August 15 at 4:45 PM from Kiruna Airport. Book the transfer here.

Midsummer in Riksgränsen

Do you want to experience a midsummer like no other? In Riksgränsen, we celebrate midsummer traditionally with skiing. Of course, there will be dancing around the maypole, herring, and potatoes, but it is the skiing under the midnight sun that we look forward to the most.

Come and celebrate an unforgettable midsummer with us!

Rooms and Accomodation

Hotel Riksgränsen is the heart of the village, centrally located only 100 meters from the ski system and just as close to the train station. At Hotell Riksgränsen you live comfortably in our hotel or ski in ski out rooms, or in a self-catered apartments! Here you will also find Restaurant Lapplandia, the bar Grönan, sports shop and Relaxen SPA & Sauna with views of the Lapland mountain world and Lake Vassijaure. The meteorologist ski lodge is located directly adjacent to the hotel in the old customs house, which after a careful renovation has become a cozy and cozy ski lodge. Hostel Riksgränsen is located in the middle of Riksgränsen, a stone’s throw from the hotel, the train station and our ski area. The campsite in Riksgränsen is beautifully situated next to Lake Vassijaure and with a view of the entire facility. For an experience beyond the ordinary, we recommend a night at Låktatjåkko Mountain Station. Låktatjåkko has been a popular destination for hikers and skiers since 1939. The mountain station is Sweden’s highest located at 1228 m above sea level and is spectacularly located in a pass between two mountain peaks, 14 km from Riksgränsen and 9km from Björkliden.

Vi gick till Riksgransen för den tidiga under skidsäsongen. Hotellet har en massa att erbjuda. En mysig lounge, en bra restaurang (utmärkta bufféer), ett litet spa och många andra faciliteter. Det är en riktig village i en byggnad. Personalen var mycket vänlig och hjälpsam. Kommer definitivt komma tillbaka nästa år! Ruwan – 31 March 2017
