🇬🇧 Njakajaure (5km) - Summer

With this audio experience, walk alongside the Abiskjokk river through the canyon, explore the birch forest, and cross mires rich in biodiversity. Follow orange trail markers around a 5-kilometer loop, and put headphones in to learn about the history and geology of the village, find out more about the scientific research taking place here in the arctic, and search for some of Abisko's beautiful flora and fauna. This scenic and gentle route is popular with visitors in winter and summer, and is full of opportunities to see and photograph specialist alpine plants and to become a citizen scientist with iNaturalist.
