Description
Join me and reach the highest point in Sweden! During this 4-day program you’ll have the chance to climb both the north and the south summits of Kebnekaise (2099m), the tallest peak in the country.
Due to climate change, the northern summit will soon be the higher of the two – perhaps even this coming summer.
We will first climb to the south summit and from there walk on the spectacular ridge “Sweden’s roof” to the slightly-harder-to-reach northern summit. We then walk across the ridge again to make our way back to the south summit before starting our descent.
Although the Kebnekaise can be climbed in between 9-13 hours, this 3-day program will allow us to reach both summits and and also upgrade our climbing skills on the neighboring rock face ‘Kaipak’
We will stay at Kebnekaise Fjällstation for 3 nights, which will allow us 2 full days in the area. No mountaineering experience is required but you will need a very good physical condition.
I offer this program both privately and for groups (on fixed dates). Join me for a memorable experience on one of Scandinavia’s most famous mountains and enjoy the unique views from Sweden’s roof!

I was looking for a local guide for a hike I was planning and came across Explore-Share. They seemed to have good reviews and so decided to give them a try. The experience was very positive and completely happy with their service. I will be using them again for next trip.

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.
