Arvidsjaur is located in the one and only Lapland. Lapland is an area of Sweden that is renowned for a number of things, particularly its freezing cold winters but this makes it ideal for a number of unique outdoor activities. For instance, if you've never tried skiing, trekking or dog sled rides then this is the perfect place to do it. There is plenty of great outdoor activities here but it's small so it's worth hiring a car in Arvidsjaur for easy access to wider Sweden as each town is far from the next.
If you've never been dogsledding before then Arvidsjaur is the perfect place to start. You can spend a whole day in the Reivo nature reserve where you can experience dog sledding. Another great idea is fishing in the wilderness of Lapland, which is a true unique experience in itself. This is a unique fishing experience where you can try and catch arctic char and trout. Last but not least is an evening tour in the Lauker Nature Safari where you can take a canoe ride along the beautiful Åby River, and see untouched areas of nature and wildlife. If you want to see all of these attractions then it's ideal you hire a car in Arvidsjaur because they are located outside of the town.
