Kungsleden Trail / Abisko National Park - Itenerary

Tomorrow, Thursday (13 July) I'm going to start hiking a section of the Kungsleden (King's Trail) starting from Abisko Turiststation, Sweden. I'm planning to spend 3 nights along the trail at various points (possibly huts) and then my 4 and 5 nights at the Kebnekaise hut. I plan to hike up to the summit of Kebnekaise (2111 meters) on my 5 day and then hike out to the town of Nikkaluokta, Sweden on my 6th day. Hopefully the same day, I can catch the bus (or hitch) to Kiruna where I'll stay at the STF Vandrarhem Kiruna (Kiruna HI hostel). I'll have internet access once I'm in Kiruna, which hopefully will be the night of Tuesday, 18 July. Then I have to back track to Abisko the following day to pick up my stuff from the luggage room at the Abisko Turiststation lodge. Then I'll take the train back through Kiruna and on to Lulea, Sweden. So you won't be hearing from me for a bit.

Hopefully once I'm in Kiruna I can update my blog on the surreal Lofoten Islands in Norway.
