Discover Hemavan
Hemavan – more than a mountain village
Alpine adventure and everyday life meet in southern Lapland. Hemavan is a village in strong development – and for more and more people, the place to move to.
What is Hemavan?
Hemavan sits in southern Lapland, at the foot of the Norra Storfjället massif by the Vindel River. The Kungsleden trail begins here, and alpine skiing, hiking, fishing and breathtaking nature are available all year round.
But Hemavan is more than nature. It is a living village with shops, restaurants, a school and a growing range of housing – and a community at the start of an exciting phase of development.
