Join me on this hiking and wild camping week in Sweden, and we will explore and discover the postcard-pretty and lovely Abisko National Park, one of the most beautiful parts of Scandanavia featuring some of the best and most pristine natural environment one can imagine, with mountains, vast valleys and mesmerizing lakes creating a peaceful and relaxing vibe.
Abisko National Park is located in the far North of Sweden, 200km North of the Arctic Circle, and is an immensely popular tourist destination owing to its natural beauty and plentiful opportunities to indulge in outdoor activities. Reindeer, moose, lemmings and squirrels are some of the more common animals found in the park.
We meet at Kiruna Airport on day 1, and from there we head straight to the national park.
Every day of our journey involves new and exciting adventures, from hiking along some of the beaten and battered trails, climbing up the numerous mountains and taking in the truly epic and awesome views we constantly encounter, to camping overnight in the wild, feeling the crunch of the gorgeous Autumn leaves beneath our feet and being wowed by the Northern Lights.
The sumptuous and sublime scenery on offer is what keeps bringing people back to Abisko, as the relative lack of people, sparse landscapes and plentiful virgin terrain make it a pleasant and tranquil place to forget the modern world.
After 7 wild and adventurous days our journey ends, hopefully having made you fall in love with this gem of a place at the top of the world.
Discover one of the most beautiful parts of Sweden during a fun week of adventure – book now so you don’t miss out!
Spend each day exploring and discovering new parts of the park.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
