Assisted Mountain Activities in Hemavan Tärnaby

Overview

Hemavan and Tärnaby are two small areas in the province of Lapland offering skiing possibilities for all levels. Two ski areas- one ski pass! It is not only home to the skier, it is a wonderful part of Lapland all year round, perfect for the hiker, angler, hunter, cyclist, canoeist, botanist and mushroom picker and travelling there couldn’t be easier. If you’re driving, simply follow the E12 highway. If you’re flying, a plane will land you, literally, in the heart of mountains at Hemavan Tärnaby airport, which is right in the centre of Hemavan and receives six flights a week all year round. Coach travel is another alternative with direct regular services linking Hemavan Tärnaby with Stockholm or Umeå. If you choose the train, head for Umeå or Östersund and catch the connecting bus service.

We have recently become aware of a very exciting opportunity in the Hemavan area for those with a disability wishing to enjoy a holiday in the mountains. Ski 2 Freedom has not yet been able to visit the site and therefore can only offer information provided by the Lodge owners. However, we hope to visit Hemavan later in the season.

The SMU Fjallgard Lodge, which will soon be known as the Hemavan Fjallstation, offers affordable accommodation for families, individuals and groups in a central location near to the ski lifts. They put particular emphasis on providing an ideal environment for those with disabilities such as mobility impairments or a visual deficit, by offering large spacious rooms that are easily accessible. They also offer pleasant common areas and a sauna.

The Lodge works closely with the Totalskidskolan, an organisation well known to Ski 2 Freedom, in bringing disabled skiing instruction to the area. They can provide instructors for disabled skiers who use sit-ski or cart-ski.
