Nikkaluokta
Better weather today. More snow on the peaks.
Have breakfast buffet in the restaurant.
Goes to the chapel which lies on a hill.
Good views of the fall.
Girls are taking selfies with the view as background.
The hair must lie right, fly right, look funny.
I have no hair, easy for me. Will not be good anyway.
Talking a long time with an extremely well-trained mountain hiker.
The chapel is locked. Key can be borrowed at reception.
Switching to the cottage we booked before the trip.
It has a small kitchenette and toilet.
Charming and nice.
For 900 SEK, it feels luxurious.
Waffle with cloudberry jam for lunch.
The key to the chapel is already loaned.
Going there again. Simple fine chapel built in 1942.
A woman reads aloud from the Bible to a man.
Enjoying the view from the hill for a while.
Otherwise, there is not much to do here.
Typical start or end point of a hike.
In the evening, renskav (then reindeer meat)
with potato puree in the restaurant and Backen beer from Skellefteå.
Then again to the hill by the chapel to look at a beautiful sunset.
Sleep well during the night.
Have breakfast buffet in the restaurant.
Bus to Kiruna Airport. Do not need to put the backpack in a plastic bag.
"Gets a lot of plastic. We handle many backpacks."
Both we and luggage arrive safely at Sturup. Airbus to Lund.
