Riksgränsen

Lake Vassijaure defines the setting of Riksgränsen — its high-country waters and the surrounding Scandinavian Mountains make snow, wind and changing Arctic light part of daily life. Close to Norway’s border in Norrbotten County, this is one of Sweden’s best-known ski destinations, with a long season and terrain used for piste skiing and freeriding. The Iron Ore Line, called Malmbanan in Sweden, passes through the settlement on its route between the mining city of Kiruna and Narvik on Norway’s coast. That rail link reflects the area’s longstanding role in northern Scandinavian transport.
