Vasterbottens Museum

Reviewed By Kipuka83 - Oslo, Norway

It is a small open air museum. We were there during the Samisk veckan (the sami week) in march and they had activities and real reindeer on the premises :) Thanks to a recent snowfall and perfect blue sky it was a great day to visit the museum. The museum building also houses some interesting collections and exhibitions about the region.

Arboretum Norr

Reviewed By lizal89 - Umeå, Sweden

I use to visit this amazing forest at least three times a year. It’s as beautiful in the spring as in the fall. You can se all kinds of trees from all over the world, bring a picnic and sit down by the river and enjoy the full nature. It’s also possible to go to the restaurant and eat an amazing dinner or just take a coffee. This is one of my favorite places to go both alone, with my family and friends, don’t miss out on this beautiful place!

Lycksele Djurpark

Reviewed By Majsan1980 - Luleå, Sweden

The most northern animal park in Sweden. Wolves, bears, elks, lynx, wolverine. A small childrens park with goats, guinea pigs, swine, rabbits etc. It was easy to see most of the animals even though the wolverine and the lynx where a bit reserved and hide. There were bear cubs who the kids loved to see play. The large restaurant was closed due to covid but they had a wagon that sold hamburgers, langos etc. and a small cafe where you could get icecream, coffe etc. There´s a little train that you can go around the area with, which is great to get a view from.
