Ice Climbing – Vertical Ice
Finding oneself in a frozen waterfall, armed with an axe and climbing irons, is definitely a sublime experience. If the waterfall happens to be north of the Arctic Circle, the experience is doubled and two thoughts shoot through your head. 1) What am I doing? 2) Why haven’t I done this before?
Courses for beginners to advanced climbers. The course leader is always a qualified or trainee guide. Abisko is ideally situated for the northern lights which can regularly be seen from the lodge.
