Heliski – short week, 4 days Sunday to Thursday
Riksgränsen, Kebnekaise – Abisko in Swedish – Lapland
Our heliski area in northern Swedish - Lapland is unique - is half the size of Austria and has more than 100 mountains to ski.
We offer heliskiing of the highest quality. Our small groups, a maximum of 5 people per mountain guide, ensure minimum waiting times and maximum descents. During private or semi-private heliskiing we discover the wild north of Sweden.
Travel to Riksrgränsen – 4 hour flight from Munich, London, Vienna etc.
We are in the very north of Sweden, 200 km above the Arctic Circle, on the border with Norway. You can fly to Stockholm and then to Kiruna in Swedish Lapland, from here it is then about a 1.5 hour transfer by car to Riksgränsen.

Security
We have the highest level of security, both skiing and helicopter transport. All skiers in the group are equipped with shovels, probes, ABS backpacks and avalanche transceivers. Both the pilot and the mountain guide always carry a satellite phone with them, as we are often far in the wilderness without a cell phone or radio connection to the outside world. All our guides are trained UIAGM/IFMGA mountain guides. For security reasons, the names and contact details of all participants must be given in the registration.

Ratings / Feedback (that we are proud of):
"We had an out - of - this world time heliskiing with Andreas from Mountain Guide Travel on close to dozen peaks. Not sure if there are many resorts that can beat the scenery with so many peaks and frozen lakes in close proximity but certainly there aren`t many guides that can make the experience so special, exiting an yet secure."
