Luleå Ice Track – Dutch speed skater Kjeld Nuis reaches 93 km/h

Luleå Kjeld Nuis

Wednesday, 28 March 2018- Luleå Ice track. Having won two Olympic Gold medals in both 1000 and 1500 metres in South Korea, conditions were ideal for the Dutch speedskater Kjeld Nuis to reach high speeds in Luleå – Swedish Lapland. Setting a new world record as fastest man on ice! Luleå Travel was part in this project with accommodating everybody involved in two of our traditional Tipi tents on the ice, during daytime. The smallest tent as private hideout for Kjeld Nuis and the biggest tent – Stratus 72 as working, eating and lounge area for up to 40 persons crew. It has been a great project to be involved and it’s good to see that the Luleå ice track is used in so many ways during the winter season!

Luleå enjoys a long snow season with snow beginning around December and lasting until April, making it a perfect place for winter activities. The three most requested activities in 2017.  Phote credits: Fredrik Broman – Isdimma

1. Dog sledding

By far the most requested activity for this year and one of the most iconic ways to enjoy the nature of Swedish Lapland in wintertime. Going on a dog sledding tour through Swedish Lapland is an unique experience in many ways. The strength of the dogs and their capability to pull the sled at high speed in the snow covered terrain, the crisp climate and stunning surroundings will give you a thrill never to be  forgotten. If you are lucky you might even spot reindeer or a moose on your trip. You can choose between different tours  from one our to full day or chasing the northern lights in the evening!

2. Snowmobiling

Riding on a snowmobile is a great way to experience the outdoors of Swedish Lapland and they can be ridden by one or two people at a time. This is a fun activity and one of the favourite activities to do in Swedish Lapland. It’s not only a fast and efficient way to get from one place to another but it also allows you to go fast and take in the gorgeous scenery along the way.

3. Snowshoe walking

If skiing or snowboarding is a little fast paced for you, or you just want to try something a bit different, then maybe you should give snowshoeing a go. Our new and modern snowshoes are very light weight and easy to use. This makes walking through snow-covered terrain effortless, opening up huge possibilities for exploring the winter wilderness of Swedish Lapland. If you can walk you can snowshoe – it’s that easy!  

Between December and March there will be daily departures for these activities and many more, fill in our contact form or call for more information +46(0)70 6666 805
