Rävfallsstugan - Ammarnäs, Kungsleden

After the bridge over the Vindelälven river, the trail climbs steeply through the mountain birch forest. The trail follows Vuotsbäcken and then comes up to a small plateau. Here the trail turns sharply and climbs upwards. The forest gradually thins out and the views widen. The trail turns around a large hillside marsh and then goes up towards Stuore Jåppe. On the other side of the ridge you can see the mighty peaks of Ammarfjället.

Then it goes down towards Björkskogen in Marsivaggie. There is a rich bird life here with many different waders and waterfowl. The trail passes over the hill Njallavaratje and arrives at Gieråive. It then continues down a short steep hill to the birch forest and continues on a headland between two lakes. The trail then goes gently uphill through dry birch forest. The high mountain panorama over the lakes is very beautiful.

Further on, at Småfjällen, you have another beautiful view. Down at the edge of the forest there is a fork in the road, where you can turn towards Karsbäcken. However, the King's Trail continues downhill past Näsbergstjärnen. There is lush vegetation on the slope down towards Ammarnäs. You arrive at Näsberget's slalom slopes where there is parking.

The trail is unmarked through the village of Ammarnäs. The next stretch towards Aigertstugan continues on the other side of Tjulån. In Ammarnäs there are several accommodations and restaurants.

Time: 8-10 hours
