If you’re planning to visit Swedish Lapland in the winter, staying nearby either Kiruna or Jukkasjärvi provides a great base for all the best Lapland experiences.

For a local and affordable accommodation in Kiruna, I’d recommend staying at Camp Alta. Here, you can stay in a small cabin and there are accommodation types for different budgets, ranging from budget cabin with shared facilities, to larger cabins with private facilities. Onsite at the campsite, you can enjoy free amenities like a sauna and ice fishing, and they also offer rentals for winter activities like cross-country skiing, as well as clothing rentals.
