Kittelfjäll

Kittelfjäll (Southern Sami: Stoere Giemnie or Tjiehtele) is a winter sports resort and a former "small locality" in Lapland 90 kilometers northwest of Vilhelmina in Västerbotten County, Sweden. The area is a popular tourist destination, known for its year-round outdoor activities. During the summer, the region attracts visitors with mountain hiking, fishing, and cycling, while the winter offers ski touring, cross-country skiing, snowmobiling, and ice fishing. Accommodations in the area are close to nature with easy access to hiking trails, fishing waters, and ski tracks. Between 2015 and 2020 Kittelfjäll was classified as a small locality by Statistics Sweden (SCB). Today, the area has a permanent population of fewer than 100 people but sees a growing amount of recreational housing with around 1,400 private properties and about 700 rentable commercial beds. Kittelfjäll was established by Lars Larsson and his wife Anna Gustafsdotter from Dalarna, who in 1815 received permission to settle in the area.
