Chapter 13: A Trip to Sweden

The last light of dawn on the Lofoten Islands.

On the mountain pass over the Scandinavian Mountains to Sweden, it was freezing -32°C.

The Abisko National Park stretches across the high plateau.

A short hike leads to an icy canyon.

Due to the extreme temperatures, everything freezes in seconds.

To recover from the hardships of the icy hike, we warmed up in the Kiruna spa for a change. Unfortunately, the relaxing effect didn't last long, as we unexpectedly got stuck in deep snow in the city center and had to unpack the shovels.
