After we had some complications with the booking for our rental car.. we finally left Stockholm with 1 hour delay. We drove on the E4, their highway along yellow birches and lakes. In the afternoon it began to rain and sometimes to snow. Because the delay we couldn’t really stop along the way to see something but the weather was bad anyway.

Near Sundsvall we booked a cute red cabin next to the lake. Here i feel like the characters from Astrid Lindgreen. For diner we drove into the city and ate some delicious burgers 🍔 Back at the cabin it started snowing again and everything was alreay covered in the white powder ❄️Read more

We walked past the visitor center directly towards the waterfall, the little murmur we already heard. A nice waterfall in the woods. There were a lot of bushes and stones and some yellow birches and everything was covered with a little bit of snow. The colors were very intensive, the green and the yellow, like a fairytale. 🧚🏼‍♀️ Exept the water it was absolutely silent and the air was very icy and refreshing ❄️Read more

Sundsvall- Sorsele
October 21, 2020 in Sweden ⋅ ❄️ -2 °C
Today we drove nearly 400km and about 6.5hours. And we are in Lappland now!
At the end it very exhausting because all the roads were only covered with snow.. especially difficult it got when it got dark.
(And it haven’t stopped snowing yet ❄️)
Some parts were more difficult than others but when a truck came my heart always started pumping much faster. We came on a accident where we weren’t sure what to do or how long we had to wait there because there was already a long line with cares & trucks waiting. But luckily they pulled the car out of the snow very fast and the street was free again. Despite the horror and the concentration it was a great. We saw many beautiful houses and tons of trees covered in snow😍❄️Read more

We actually wanted to visit Akkavare Tower but we kinda missed it.. But it was not a terrible desaster because the walked trough a nearly untouched fir forest. It was like walking on the edge of the world in a magical winter fairytale!!❄️
The freezing air was just breathtaking and it was absolutley quiet!Read more

It’s like driving towards the edge of the world. Bearly any cars, any sounds.. just us, our car ad the endless road. We were driving along thousands of fir trees, birches, river, lakes and bushes and everything is covered with a layer of fresh snow!❄️ Sometimes we saw all over the countryside and we got a impression how big the country is. The roads are mostley completely icy and snowy, it’s very stressful or better it needs a lot of concentration 😅
On our way we were so lucky, because we saw two herds of reindeers! Some were white ones and there were some babys😍 It was very special to experience these animals in their natural habitat 🦌
We even crossed the border of the arctic circle.. 🥶Read more

Storknabben is a little observation deck above Jokkmokk, a 30 minute walk through a forest. It was a real winterwonderland! The way the sun shone perfectly into into the trees and the snow was sparkling in every color. There was absolutley no sound exept the crunching of our shoes in the snow. ❄️ On top, we had a stunning view over the woods, the village and the mountains😍 absolutley worth it!Read more

Today we decided to visit the National Park near the norwegian border. The Park is 77km² big and can offer you from mountains to rivers and lakes anything you want. There are many trails, once form many days and others for a easy hike. We hiked a loop along the river and the other half through the tundra like landscape. The water was cristal blue and there were many icicles, many birches and of course a lot of snow! ❄️ We enjoyed the silence of the nature and the fresh and icy air! Even the sun was out today and gave us a stunning sunset. ☀️Read more

Sadley, every night there were many clouds and with too may of them it’s difficult to hunt the Aurora Borealis. It even started snowing in the middle of the night.. Well, we were about to give up but luckily they showed themself a bit😍 It was still magical to see them, even though they were more like a cloud than the pictures on the internet😜 We were glad we had a seat heating in the car, it was freezing out there, even with many socks and pullovers ect.. 🥶❄️Read more
