Discover Inlandsbanan

Explore the true highlights along Swedens' Inland with us



This trip is a true Inlandsbanan classic. On selected dates you can start the trip in Kristinehamn in the heart of Värmland. A small town with an archipelago in Lake Vänern. Otherwise the journey begins in Mora, the home of Vasaloppet by lake Siljan. The train will take you all the way up to Gällivare and our magnificent Lapland Wilderness with wild rivers and mountain tops covered in snow nearly the whole year round.
 
In Mora you get to admire Anders Zorns paintings at the Zorn museum. In Östersund you get to travel in time at the heritage museum Jamtli History Land. On the way north you pass the Arctic Circle and the world heritage Laponia, Muddus and Mount Dundret.  If travelling in the beginning of the summer you get to experience the magic Midnight sun and Arctic nights.
