September 15, 2018: Kebnekaise - Nikkaluokta, 19 km
During the night about half of the fifteen in the room loudly. Earplugs would have been needed. "Wake up" before clock rings. Many others do, a general break-up. We are leaving twenty over six. We wait for breakfast after an hour of hiking. It's still fine weather so far. The rain will come first in the afternoon. It is below zero degrees, there is frost on the ground. Autumn colors, the birches shine yellow. The path goes through the mountain birch forest all the way. Initially rocky path.

At a height we have a beautiful view of the mountains in the background. In addition, it is coverage for the mobile. Calling home and congratulating on the birthday. Passing a lake, the hills reflect themselves. A fox sits on the path. "Moving on" seems it to mean. We remain. It round us inside the forest, past us, and out on the path on the other side. It looks a little sour on us.

Passes the boat jetty where you can take a boat for about 5 kilometers, the last trip in the days. Easy going hiking. At the second boat jetty is a cafe/restaurant, closed for the season. The path becomes a wide autostrada. Light rain begins to fall. Meet several hikers. Soon to arrive in Nikkaluokta.

We called last night and booked a mountain cabin. It costs SEK 750, the same as a bed in the Kebnekaise mountain station. Nice cottage, but without toilet and water. Available in a service house, becomes a good shower. A guy has run Kungsleden from Abisko. Hungry. Eat renskav for lunch. Take a rest in our cabin. Increasing rain. In the evening is the restaurant booked for a 90 year party. We can eat a moose pot for SEK 170 in the loft in the restaurant. Good. To it a beer Höga Kusten. Raining heavily now.
