Driving to the Jokkmokk Market

Posted by billvision in Trip 6: One Full Year

Yesterday Kalle, Kicki and I drove to the Jokkmokk Market in, well… Jokkmokk.

Dubbed the “Coldest Market in the World”, the Jokkmokk Market was started in 1602 and now attracts over 20 thousand visitors every year.

The three hour drive from Juoksengi to Jokkmokk was beautiful, mostly due to the snow covered trees and an incredible sunrise.

More about the market itself in the next post.

Where is Jokkmokk, Sweden?
