Discover Inlandsbanan

Inlandsbanan takes you to some of the most interesting places in the varied landscape of inland and arctic Sweden.

The journey begins in Kristinehamn or Mora and takes you all the way up to the magnificent Lapland wilderness with its salmon rivers and mountain tops covered in snow nearly the whole year round. On the way you will admire the Zorn paintings in Dalarna and visit the heritage museum Jamtli History Land next to Lake Storsjön.

The way north is lined with interesting places and sights. On the way you will pass the Arctic Circle and on arrival in Gällivare you will experience the breath-taking view from Mount Dundret. If travelling in June, up until 9 July, you will see the midnight sun, a real highlight.

Because of its delightful location on the shore of Lake Siljan and its rich cultural heritage there is much to see and do in Mora. We suggest you make time for a visit to Zorngården (entry included), the Vasaloppet museum (Vasaloppet is the world’s oldest and biggest ski race) or a walk along beautiful Lake Siljan. In the afternoon the journey continues by train through the county of Härjedalen. Here you will get close to the wilderness, traveling through bear forests. In the evening we arrive at Östersund, the residential town of the county of Jämtland.

Today’s train trip takes you through the counties of Jämtland and Ångermanland into Sweden's largest landscape: Swedish Lapland.

We travel on through the southern parts of Lapland, taking a break at Storuman, where you can visit the station house, a listed building.

Keep your eyes wide open – there are usually plenty of elks and reindeers along Inlandsbanan.

Arvidsjaur offers a wide variety of activities, from fishing to canoeing or a visit to the Sami village Lappstaden.
