It was my first time ice climbing, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience! The guide, David, was excellent—clear in his explanations, patient, and always helpful. Besides guiding me through the practice, he also shared many interesting details about ice climbing in general. I highly recommend this experience with Abisko Adventure.

Our guides Anna and Daniel(?) were great! The location was awesome with a look to the Lapland gate, while having different routes for all levels - some climbing experience of benefit but enjoyable to all levels for sure! The guides were also very attentive and explaining how to improve our techniques. The Fika midway through was perfect to recharge energies and warm up.
