Itinerary description
Day excursion to the Tarfala Valley from the Kenbnekaise Mountain Station, visiting Tarfala lake and mountain cabin and then ascending Tarfakapakte peak of 1,806 meters. From here, there is a magnificent view of the three glacier tongues that descend from the east side of Kebnekaise mountain.
The walk can be described as easy until Tarfala cabin. The ascent to Tarfalapakte is not difficult but it is hard because runs along a steep slope of loose rock.
