Description

Come with me on this 4-day heliboarding trip in Lapland, Sweden!

With over 100 peaks between 600 and 1450 meters, skiers and snowboarders will be amazed by Lapland’s beautiful mountains. During this 4-day heliboarding adventure, participants will be able to discover this skier’s winter paradise.

Located in northern Sweden, Lapland is considered to be Europe’s last remaining wilderness area and in my opinion, it’s an excellent location for off-piste riding and an unbelievable spot for heliboarding!

The price for this 4-day trip includes 5 flight hours (additional time can be bought if conditions are good). We’ll be skiing in the area comprised between Björkliden, Riksgränsen Abisko and the Kebnekaise massif. Thus, we’ll have to choose from 5000 square meters of skiable terrain!

In order to join me on this heliboarding adventure, participants must be experienced skiers as well as experienced snowboarders and be in great physical condition. Also, keep in mind that we may adjust the length of the program to your wishes and availability.

I’ll be happy to safely guide you around the Arctic part of Sweden. So if you are ready for this winter escape in Swedish Lapland, request to book this trip and get ready for this unique opportunity.

About the guide

Mountain Guide

I'm a UIAGM certified guide, skitouring-freeride and heliski guide. I'm a lifelong skier, climber and mountaineer, born in Prachovske skaly, a famous sandstone climbing area in the Czech Republic.
I've personally participated in 13 expeditions to 8thousander peaks and stood 5 times on an 8000m peak. I have guided guests on all continents (7 summits, etc..) in numerous treks, climbing or skitouring expeditions.
I run a guiding company in Prague and work for Patagonia, SKI TRAB and ABS avalanche backpacks. I spend my winter guiding in the Northern hemisphere, including heliski in Lappland (SWE), ski touring in Morocco or enjoying the best powder snow on earth in Japan.
The rest of the time I'm on expeditions in Nepal or South America and I spend most of the summer climbing in my hometown or guiding in the Alps.
I like Czech beer and food, passionate guests and jokes. If I'm not available my team will guide you instead.

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
