Fatmomakke, Sweden
Why
This the ancient home of the Saami people. These are the original habitants of Sweden. It’s a beautiful place rich with history and oh so quiet and peaceful. And did I mention remote?

How To Get Here
By Train
There is train service but not directly to Fatmomakke. You would require a car or a hired service from the nearest train station which is Vilhelmina, another unfamiliar destination :-). This is a very long train ride even with one change. But you get to see the Swedish countryside, so it works out. Check out the Swedish Rail Web site for details.

By Plane
Fly into Hemavan/Tarnaby (HMV) or Vilhelmina (VHM) on NextJet from Stockholm (ARN). Then either take a helicopter or drive to Fatmamokke. I recommend the helicopter :-).

What To Do
The draw of Fatmomakke is to see the Saami Village as well as the surroundings and go fishing or just take a canoe ride from one of the locals. The area is very peaceful and also if you are there during church, please go and worship with the locals. After the service they have a little meetup in one of the old Saami houses. They make you really feel at home.
