Stockholm & Lapland Railway from Stockholm

Self-guided Sweden rail trip from Stockholm through Lapland on the Inland Railway

Authentic Scandinavia operates this 7-day, 6-night self-guided rail trip from Stockholm north into Swedish Lapland, using the Inlandsbanan, the Inland Railway, for the second half of the journey. After two nights in Stockholm, the capital of Sweden, with a day at leisure to explore on day 2, the trip heads north by train to Östersund on day 3. From there travelers change to the Inland Railway, which runs at about 30 miles per hour through unspoiled forest and past mountain streams, with meal and sightseeing stops along the way, covering Arvidsjaur, Jokkmokk, and Gällivare over the following three days. Each stop includes one night at a hotel with breakfast. There is no accompanying guide; Authentic Scandinavia provides a 24/7 emergency phone line instead, and travelers hold their own tickets and vouchers throughout. This suits independent travelers who want a slow, scenic way to see Sweden's far north without a group itinerary to follow.

Price history

Across 5 checks, this price has risen €213 since 4 Jul, to €1,205.

Each point is a day we checked this operator's own page, not a weekly average, and the line holds flat between checks rather than guessing at movement we did not see. 2 of 5 points are a live read of the operator's page. Hollow points are values shown when the trip was first listed here and never confirmed with the operator.

One reading is held out of the price above and this history: an unconfirmed large change. We only price on the operator's package from-price, read from its own page.

What to know before you look closer

This is a self-guided trip; Authentic Scandinavia provides only a 24/7 emergency phone line while travelling, not an accompanying guide or tour manager.
The included list covers breakfast with each hotel stay; the description mentions meal stops along the Inland Railway route, but lunches and dinners are not listed as included, so budget for them separately.
The evidence pack does not list current departure dates; confirm scheduling directly with Authentic Scandinavia.
