Abisko
The Abisko is probably the most northern place that I had ever been. I doubt that it is the furthest north, though, because Abisko is 200 kilometers above the Arctic Circle. Still, it is extremely high. What was I doing where Christ lost his sandal? Then begin a trip to Swedish Lapland, since in Abisko is a national park that is the beginning of Kungsleden or King's Road. There is a path that can be followed for days of snowshoeing. Abisko is a small village and a national park located in northern Sweden. Geographically, it is located in the Swedish province of Lapland near the Norwegian border.
The park was founded in 1909, the same year in which the first laws of nature conservation were developed in Sweden. Abisko is also home to the scientific research center of Abisko. The center first came to be in 1903 in Abisko and it joined the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in 1935. It is used mainly for environmental research, biological, and geological purposes.
