Thanks to the Stockholm-Narvik night train, you can fall asleep in Sweden’s capital and wake up the next day in the heart of Lapland. For this journey, we highly recommend stopping in Abisko. This small locality, located in the far north of Sweden on the shores of Lake Torneträsk, is home to two train stations: Abisko Östra and Abisko Turiststation ('Abisko Tourist Station'). It's a key gateway to one of Sweden's and Europe's very first national parks. Abisko is also world-famous for northern lights observation!
