FAQs: Splitboarding in Sweden
What should I know about Splitboarding Sweden?
While Sweden may not have the most mountains or the highest ones, it still boasts plenty of incredible splitboarding opportunities.
Away from Kebnekaise, Abisko National Park is a popular place to head out on a hut-to-hut ski touring expedition. The mountains around the Laporrten valley, in which the national park sits, provide plenty of great opportunities for skinning up and boarding back down.
Heading on an 8-day splitboarding trek from Abisko to Nikkaluokta is an especially popular way to see the country’s glaciers as well as getting the chance to experience the famed Northern Lights.
Why should I choose Sweden for my Splitboarding adventure?
Stunning scenery
Northern Sweden is home to some of Europe’s most stunning scenery. The unspoiled landscapes of mountains, forests and valleys have come to define this part of the world as well as the adventurous psyche. Heading out on a splitboard is a great way to see as much of this beautiful region as possible.
Best of both worlds
For snowboarding enthusiasts, heading out into the backcountry can be a hassle. Afterall, it’s hard to travel over a flat surface on a snowboard. Going on a splitboard allows you to cover the same ground a skier could while enjoying wildly fun descents like a snowboarder. Is there any better way to do it?
The Northern Lights
Whenever you come to Sweden for backcountry skiing touring, it’s a great opportunity to see the Northern Lights. Out in the backcountry and away from city, you have natural darkness, which allows for spectacular views of this natural phenomenon. December to February is the best time to come, but the lights generally last into March.
