Programme
Sunday
Arrival and gathering at Fjällhästen’s
hostel after lunch. Introduction of your fishing- and horse
guides and the tour’s plan. We go over the equipment and the
packing of the personal equipment in pack rolls (that you
borrow from Fjällhästen). Dinner at the Ammarnäs Inn. You
stay the night at Fjällhästens’s hostel.
Monday
Breakfast at the hostel and after that
direct departure to the Icelandic horses.
The horses are prepared and the trip to Fjällhästen’s place
at Tjaskal starts. After about eight km we are there and a
cooked lunch is served before the fishing starts. Tjaskal
is at the upper part of the mountain birch forest
approximately 750 m above sea level. We fish a small system
of meres for brown trout and arctic char. During the
afternoon you can attend the fishing school with tips from
your guide to make everyone feel at ease with the fishing.
Dinner and overnight stay at Fjällhästen’s place.
Tuesday
After breakfast we ride up to the bare
mountains. We ride towards north-east along the mountain
Stuore Jåppe. Below us is the bird protective area
Marsivagge with mountain skua, mountain buzzard and
sometimes the golden eagle appears. At noon we halt for
lunch at the lake Raksjaure. After about 22 km we reach
Fjällhästen’s cot by the lake Lule Skeblejaure,
approximately 850 m above sea level. Here we fish for brown
trout in both streams and still water which are part of a
larger lake system. Dinner and overnight stay in the cot on
air mattresses and sleeping pads for best comfort.
Wednesday
We continue fishing the lake system of the
Skeble valley after breakfast. Take the opportunity to share
your fishing guide’s tips on how to catch the really big
brown trout!
A cooked lunch will be served during the day. Dinner in the
evening. Make sure not to forget to enjoy real coffee,
cooked over an open fire in the cot!
Thursday
This day they who want to can follow the
guide up to lake Guoptje, at about 5 km hiking distance from
the cot. This lake is deeper and more round than the lakes
at Skeble. The scenery along the lake is pleasant and the
lake easy to fish. Fishing the streams at the inlet of Guoptje is also good. Brown trout and arctic char is there
to catch. A packed lunch to bring for them who hike to
Guoptje. Back at the cot dinner awaits.
Friday
Time to break up and leave for Ammarnäs.
After breakfast we saddle up the horses and ride through the
valley of Skeble up to Stuore Jåppe. Now is the
opportunity to try the Icelandic horse’s characteristic
walking- and motion pattern, the toelt. We will back at
Ammarnäs after approximately 30 km of riding. We have a good
dinner at the Ammarnäs Inn as a completion and stay the
night at Fjällhästen’s hostel.
Saturday
Breakfast at the hostel and departure.
