Dog Sledding in Kiruna

Kiruna, located in the northernmost part of Sweden, is a city that transforms into a true winter wonderland during the coldest months of the year. The city is situated in Norrbotten County, near the borders of Norway and Finland. Kiruna municipality is known for its vast areas where reindeer husbandry, mining, and nature-based industries coexist. Kiruna is home to the world’s largest underground iron ore mine, which is currently causing us to relocate Kiruna City to allow for the mine’s expansion. Join us on a journey through our beautiful winter landscape.
