You can catch a flight to Kiruna, which is located in the north of Sweden, from most of London’s airports. The fastest available routes are from London Heathrow Airport (LHR) to Kiruna (KRN) at a flight time of around 6h 50min, with one stopover. Flight times can vary and depend heavily on the stopover time. Other London airports such as London Gatwick (LGW) and London Stansted (STN) also have routes available to Kiruna, with flight times ranging from just under 7h to well over 24h.

Unfortunately, there are no direct flights from the UK to Kiruna, so you’ll make at least one stop on all flights on this route. There are two airlines serving Kiruna Airport (KRN) and these are SAS Scandinavian Airlines and Eurowings. The most common route would be to fly with SAS Scandinavian Airlines from London Heathrow to Stockholm Arlanda Airport (ARN) and then onto Kiruna. The Eurowings flights into Kiruna are less frequent, but it’s also possible to fly from London Heathrow with Eurowings, this time with a stopover in Stuttgart. Flying from other airports in the UK such as Manchester is possible, but this would require multiple airlines and more than one stopover.

You do not need a visa to visit Kiruna if you are a British citizen with a full UK passport, and you don’t plan to stay for longer than 90 days.

Given its location north of the Arctic circle, Kiruna is not surprisingly a stunning and remarkable setting for visitors. 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. The Polar Night arrives in December, when there is no daylight at all, although you can still see by the light of the moon reflected in the snow. Some key dates to remember are the Arctic Lights Film Festival in November and the Snow Festival in January.
