Padjelantaleden etapper

There is a well-known hiking trail called Padjelantaleden Padjelanta Trail that runs between Kvikkjokk in the southeast and either Vaisaluokta or Änonjalme beneath Áhkká in the north, and is about km in length. All these endpoints lie outside the borders of the park, which means that hikers must travel for at least a day before entering Padjelanta itself, but in the summer there are also regular helicopter tours between Kvikkjokk, Stáloluokta and Ritsem. Along this trail there are a number of cottage sites providing accommodation for visitors. Originally, the tourist buildings within the park proper were managed by the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency , but they have since passed into the care of the aforementioned Sámi villages, under the name Badjelánnda Laponia Turism BLT. In Stáloluokta there is a sauna , and during the tourist season visitors can also buy provisions there. Note that Padjelantaleden is a summer trail, so there are no markings visible when the land is covered in snow.

Neither are the cottages manned in winter, but there is always at least one room open at all the cottage sites. Another hiking trail called Nordkalottruta also passes through the park, although its path is the same as that of Padjelantaleden most of the way. Another point of interest is that the Swedish center of inaccessibility i. It is reported that at the southeastern bay of the lake Rissájávrre close to the border of Sarek, [2] it is approximately 47 km 29 mi. The isolation of this spot is, however, partially an illusion, since the much-trodden Padjelantaleden and specifically the Tuottar cottage site are actually less than 5 km 3.
