Deciding what to do in Kiruna will depend heavily on the time of year you choose to go, but whether you’re going during the summer season, or for some arctic adventures in the winter, you’ll be spoilt for choice for things to see and do. In the winter, you could stay at the impressive Ice Hotel, go hunting for the Northern Lights from the Aurora Sky Station or do one of the many activities available like dogsledding, skiing, snowmobiling or ice fishing. In the summer months (June-August) you could choose to hike up Sweden’s tallest mountain, the Kebnekaise, or take the Midnight Sun Trail, or even try your hand at white-water rafting down the Torne River. The Ice Hotel itself melts into the Torne River every year and is rebuilt so you can watch as it moves through its life cycle, no matter which time of year you go. Although snow cover generally lasts from late September to the middle of May, you may still see snow in the summer as it can often snow all year round.
