High up above the Arctic Circle, beautifully situated among towering mountains and magnificent scenery, lies Riksgränsen. Here, you can choose if you want to stay in 4-star accomodation, in your own private or self catered cabins directly connected to the ski area, or at distinguished and time hallowed mountain lodges. For a large family, groups of friends or for the company, we recommend our exclusive log cabins, and for an experience out of the ordinary, we recommend a night at Låktatjåkko Mountain Lodge. Since 1939, Låktatjåkko has been a popular travel destination among hikers and skiers. The mountain lodge is spectacularly situated at 1228 meters above sea level, in the col between two peaks, looking out over a majestic landscape.

By flight – The airplane departs from Stockholm and arrives in Kiruna after approximately 90 minutes, after which you need to go by transfer bus, train or car to Björkliden. The transfer between Kiruna and Björkliden also takes about 90 minutes, so the total trip takes about 4 hours between Stockholm and Björkliden.
By train – Step onboard the train in Stockholm or Gothenburg at night and wake up amidst the fantastic mountain scenery the next day. You will reach Björkliden by lunch time. SJ runs the leg between Stockholm and Björkliden, which takes approximately 18 hours. From Björkliden train station, it’s only a few hundred metres up the hill to Hotell Fjället.
By car – Drive north on the E4, turn left at Töre and then take the E10 to Kiruna and Narvik. You will find us just before the Norwegian border.
Few Swedish mountain resorts are entitled to the label ”classic”. Björkliden is certainly one of the few. The first tourists arrived in the early days of the previous century. They travelled by train on the newly built railway and were pioneers in this, at that point in time, virtually unexplored part of the world. We see this as an important cultural heritage to cherish. We have delivered great experiences since 1926 and we strive to protect the small and genuine; with empathy, traditions and atmosphere; an oasis for body and soul; all year round.
