Yes, I overheard some germans as well as a small group of french people at breakfast. I think they're here mostly for the skiing. Otherwise, the largest group of foreigners is the chinese, but I guess they're to look at the mining operations.

Consider yourself lucky that the Russians havent made it up there yet. I have it on good authority that they tend to pretty much ruin any place they visit in numbers.

Skiing? Up there? Alps to far away and too much daytime? But well... you never know...

Hi all,

It was -10 degrees Centigrade here today...

But in 1-2 days the big thaw will come and temperatures will rise above +5 degrees Centigrade together with rain... with all this frozen snow that we still have (50+ cm over weekend) it will be flood of black mush... [:@]

Sadly, yes [:(.] Every place where any larger number of Russians shows up is to be avioded.

Skiing up there is excellent and is done in lighted ski slopes. Many find the darkness and the cold very exotic. As for the "Elchpark", it's closed during winter. Otherwise, we have quite an influx of tourists in the northern parts of Sweden during summer. Mostly Germans, Dutch and French.

As for those Germans at the hotel, they could also have been car testers. Most of Europes larger car manufacturers winter test their new models in northern Sweden or Finland. This particular group were wearing all the usual ski apparel though, so I assumed they were there for the skiing.
