This campsite in Kiruna presents a mixed experience with both positive and negative aspects. The facilities are clean and well-maintained, featuring asphalt and wooden terraces that enhance the pitch quality. However, the shower area lacks privacy, offering only curtains and a common dressing area, which may not suit all preferences. The staff has been described as moderately interested in 2022, but reports from 2025 indicate a significant decline in service quality, with unfriendly and complicated check-in processes. One guest reported waiting an hour after arriving at noon only to be told their pitch was not ready, and later discovering that an allegedly unavailable pitch was actually empty. The reception staff seemed more focused on hotel guests, and no apology was given for the mix-up. Additionally, electricity is not available for tents, only for caravans and campers, a fact not mentioned in the description. The campsite atmosphere lacks charm and is typical of an urban location, situated near a sports field. Navigation is challenging due to the entire city of Kiruna being relocated because of iron mine subsidence, causing poor and constantly changing signage. Despite these issues, the surrounding area is beautiful and worth visiting, which helps to partially offset the disappointing on-site experience. The campsite is the only camping option between Sweden and Norway in the area. For those seeking a quiet stay, the noise level is moderate with a rating hint of 3. Value for money is low, and electric hookups are limited to certain vehicle types. Overall, while the natural surroundings are a highlight, the operational shortcomings and lack of transparency may deter potential visitors.
