Kebnekaise – July 2023

One of the best trip ever.

We actually drove 24/7 (one way 1800km) from sunday morning and arrived at Nikkaloukta monday after breakfast, hiked for around 7 h, put up our tent at Kebnekaise mountain station, ate, slept, woke up after midnight, ate some more, went to the top, summited tuesday morning, went down to our tent, packed everything up and took the heli back to Nikkaloukta and drove home 24/7 and arrived wednesday evening.

To be able to stand on both south and north summit with my best friend and finally reach my goal, third time’s a charm, was mindblowing. Here are the highlights:

Some rest and food on the way.
Sunset at Höga Kusten.
Just after the start at Nikkaloukta.
We took the boat, to save our legs and because it’s a cool ride.
Campsite at Kebnekaise mountain station.
Panaramic view at the top of Vierranvarri.
Almost there 🙂
At the top waiting for my friend, he wanted me to go alone so he could fly a drone. Here is the result.

Finally at the top of north summit, looking back at our tracks from south summit. Supercool moment!
