The Last Wildland of Europe? Sarek National Park in Swedish Lapland
 – a presentation by Mateusz Ciechanowski and Zuzanna Wikar

 

One of the last areas of the European Union without any trace of human activity is Sarek National Park in Swedish Lapland. The central part of the park is visited in summer by at most a few hundred people. The slideshow focuses on the landform, vegetation and other elements of the landscape, but also touches on the themes of Sami culture, contemporary tourism and nature conservation in the Scandinavian Mountains.
