Visitor Reviews of Riksgränsen
TC from Netherlands writes:
Hi
Closest airport of Riksgransen is not Stockholm but Kiruna (Swedish Lapland) with a direct flight from Stockholm. From here you can take a direct train to Riksgransen.
Another option is to fly to Narvik (Norway) via Oslo and take the (direct) train to Riksgransen.
All other comments are true: a great place to ski/board :-)
