Pitea, Sweden

-
Swedish Lapland´s most southerly town.
Just south of the Arctic Circle, Pitea is embraced by the warm coast, fed by four mighty rivers. Pite River is one of these, and its mouth is at Pite Havsbad. The great Storforsen falls on the Pite River are Sweden’s biggest unharnessed rapids, and one of the main tourist attractions along the river. For centuries, the 24-hour summer light has attracted visitors to Swedish Lapland, and it continues to do so today.
