Nuolja Chairlift & Summit
Njulla / Nuolja
An open chairlift climbs Nuolja mountain, where in summer you can watch the midnight sun that never sets, with views over Lake Torneträsk and Lapporten.
Nuolja (Sámi: Njullá) rises to about 1,169 m. The chairlift runs from near the tourist station up to about 900 m, taking roughly 20 minutes one way. During the midnight sun season in summer, the chairlift operates at night, and from the upper station the sun skims the horizon without setting. From the upper station, you can walk about 1 hour to the summit, which overlooks Lake Torneträsk and Lapporten. In winter, the chairlift mainly serves the Northern Lights Sky Station. You can also hike up and down the trail.
Opening hours
Seasonal; extended late into the night during the midnight sun in summer
