The Swedish Tourist Association (STF) offers a 50% discount on the regular price for overnight stays in all STF mountain huts for all Ribboners during their ongoing journey. The discount applies to accommodation in an unspecified bed and does not cover the service fee, day fee, or accommodation at mountain stations. Overnight stays cannot be pre-booked but must be paid on-site upon arrival.

STF members also receive a discount on DNT huts in Norway, equivalent to the discount given to DNT members.

Service points from north to south
– so far only in Swedish, but will soon be translated!
Here you will find a list of service points, possible depot stops and other services along the Treriksröset to Grövelsjön route (based on a compilation produced by the Green Ribboner Svante Sundelin – THANK YOU Svante!). Here you will find suggestions for places to buy food, gas and other things, places to send possible depot packages to, to dry and wash things and suggestions for accommodation along the way. Some of them offer discounts to all Ribboners, check our BENEFITS.
We do not take responsibility for any changes at each location so in some cases you may want to double-check. The places are a selection, and please contact us if you are missing something, or if something is incorrect. Send us an email at info@vitagronabandet.se and we will adjust it continuously.

SHOP
In our store Fjällboden you can buy various mountain supplies, clothing and a limited selection of food. There is also a larger grocery store, Godisfabriken Supermarket, which is located in Abisko Östra, 2 km from STF Abisko Turiststation. Godisfabriken is also an agent for PostNord. In Fjällboden we also sell gas.
ACCOMMODATION/TENTS
At STF Abisko Tourist Station we offer accommodation in several forms – there is a hotel, a hostel with self-service kitchen and a cottage village. We also have a tent site where you can pitch your tent for a service fee.
EAT
Restaurang Kungsleden serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. The restaurant is located inside the tourist station and is open during high season both summer and winter. Other restaurants can be found in Abisko Östra (Abisko Mountain Lodge) and in Björkliden (Restaurang Lapporten).
DEPOT BOX
Ribboners can absolutely send packages here. This package will not cost anything in addition to the shipping. PostNord is safest, as Bussgods does not operate at certain times of the year, the bus here from Kiruna (line 91) does not run all season.
Please mark the package with your name, your phone number and the planned pick-up day. Send the package to:
Guest (your name)
The address above
And indicate “Delivery to company”
Remember that the package normally ends up at the Godisfabriken agent in Abisko Östra if you do not indicate “Delivery to company”.
A package with us at STF Abisko Turiststation can wait for its Ribboner all season! We do not throw anything away. If a Ribboner is forced to interrupt their tour, this does not pose a major problem for the package. The Ribboner is simply asked to contact the reception via e-mail or phone, and then pay for the postage – then we will send the package back to the desired address.
BENEFITS

OTHER
Shower and sauna are available at no extra cost for resident guests, but are normally also offered to non-resident guests. Washing machine is available for rent, batteries can be charged in any wall socket or at reception and a drying room for tents is available.

SHOP
Our store has both refrigerators and freezers, fruit during peak season, dairy products such as eggs, butter, sausages, ham, pizzas, ready meals, ice cream, etc., in addition to a very well-stocked store with canned goods, cold cuts, dry goods, pasta, candy, soft drinks, beer, etc. Outdoor equipment is available for sale. We sell Primus gas and Primus Power Fuel and spirit fuel.
STF’s store range for mountain cabins is based on two levels: Small and Large. STF Ritsem is like a mountain station with a range not only Large but even Large+, which means that we have a larger range that offers a wide selection of products.
ACCOMMODATION/CAMPING
Yes, we have 14 rooms with up to 45 beds. It is fine to pitch a tent on the lawn that is directly adjacent to the main building. With a paid tent fee, you have the right to use all the amenities in our mountain facility.
EATING
Simple food and café service with coffee, soft drinks, coffee, chocolate balls, maraschinos and more.
It is fine to prepare your own food that you have brought with you or that you have bought in our store.
DEPOT BOX
Bus goods apply here. A service fee of 100 SEK per package is charged for storage and handling. Payment is made upon collection at the reception.
Unfortunately, it sometimes happens that a package can end up at Coop in Gällivare and this means costs for us. That is why it is extremely important that the Ribboners name is NOT listed as the recipient, the recipient should always be “STF Ritsem”. We accept packages from all EU countries, but unfortunately not packages from Norway, as we would then have to pay customs fees that are sometimes thousands of SEK. Unfortunately, we never collect such a package from Norway.
BENEFITS
Ribboners get a 10% discount on everything purchased in the store.
OTHER
Our facility is located at Ritsem’s Sami settlement and has an incomparable view of the Áhkká massif. STF Ritsem is one of Sweden’s very best starting points for hikes and ski tours in Sarek, Padjelanta and Stora Sjöfallet National Park.
Here you can self-cater in a kitchen with microwave, stove, fridge, freezer, showers, sauna and WC with water toilet. Of course you can charge batteries. Drying tents or other things is easy and we have two drying rooms. It is also possible to rent a washing machine.
We offer wifi in public areas and/or in the room from our mobile broadband. The operator Telia’s mobile network is the only one that works in the Ritsem area, but thanks to our wifi it works well even if you have another mobile operator. Otherwise, we usually recommend calling via Messenger.

SHOP
We have a small shop with books, souvenirs and clothes. We also sell some “kåsor” (cups) and shoelaces, but no dried food or similar. Unfortunately, we do not have gas.
ACCOMMODATION/TENTS
We do not rent accommodation, but we are happy to point out good tent sites for our guests.
EAT
It is possible to have a lighter lunch with us in the form of sandwiches with char, baked potatoes, pie, etc. We also have a large selection of coffee and waffles. There are vegan options and we try to cook everything as lactose- and gluten-free as possible.
DEPOT
You must contact us via email, naturum@laponia.nu, and get confirmation that we are able to receive your package at the office in Jokkmokk and then ship it to naturum Laponia in Stora Sjöfallet. This is because we are not open all the time or are on site. When you have received an OK in response to your email, send the package via PostNord to the Laponia administration in Jokkmokk:
Laponiatjuottjudus
Kvarnbogatan 11
962 32 Jokkmokk
You should plan ahead when sending packages because Naturum Laponia is not staffed every day during the low season, so also make sure it is open when you are going to collect the package. We have received packages for several seasons and we do so free of charge. We do not collect any boxes that end up at agents and we also have no possibility of sending back packages that are not collected. During the summer we have little opportunity to receive deposit boxes but do what we can to help.
BENEFITS
We at Naturum Laponia always offer Ribboners waffles and coffee when they visit us.
We also offer guided tours of the Laponia World Heritage Site.
OTHER
Unfortunately, we don’t have the type of facility that allows for much more than charging electronics, a cup of coffee, and a warming fire.

SHOP
We have a small shop with various food, freeze-dried food, equipment, maps, gas, mosquito repellent, etc. It is also possible to have breakfast/lunch/dinner with us. Dinners sometimes get fully booked so it may be advisable to book dinner in advance during high season. We sell gas and other types of fuel.
Stora Sjöfallet’s facility a mile away on the other side of the lake has a shop. Some cabins along the Kungsleden trail have smaller shops.
ACCOMMODATION/TENTS
We have everything from beds in multi-bed rooms to rooms with more hotel standard. Camping is fine and we have a service house. We charge a fee for camping and using the service house.
EAT
We have a restaurant with breakfast, lunch, dinner, coffee, waffles every day.
DEPOT BOX
It is possible to send depot boxes to us. Boxes are best sent by Bussgods. PostNord works, but Bussgods is generally safer. DHL and Schenker do not deliver to Saltoluokta.
Every summer we receive large quantities of packages, which we ship across the lake, store and deliver. We charge a fee for the handling, as we spend many hours handling packages during a season. If you want us to return your package, we charge an additional fee for this.
Packages are sent to Saltoluokta Fjällstation, 982 99 Gällivare. Write your name and estimated arrival date clearly on the box. Packages that are not collected or requested to be returned within one month of the estimated arrival date, or at the close of the season, will be opened and donated/thrown away.
Before you mail your package to us, please contact us at saltoluokta@stfturist.se for instructions.
BENEFITS
Not right now, but this may change.

SHOP
We have a small shop with food, freeze-dried, soft preserves, canned goods, dry goods, drinks, sweets, snacks, ice cream, various refrigerated goods, bread, hygiene items, maps, mosquito repellent, patches etc. The nearest shop from us is Årrenjarka which has a shop similar to ours, but with a little more souvenirs. It is located about 20 km from Kvikkjokk towards Jokkmokk. We sell Primus gas here and also T-alcohol.
ACCOMMODATION/TENTS
We have accommodation at the station, both single rooms, 2-bed rooms to 4-bed rooms. Some of our rooms allow pets. There is also the possibility of camping, but this is not something that the mountain station stands for. Camping according to the right of public access applies, but in designated places.
EAT
We have a breakfast buffet, a café that is open daily with coffee and lunch, and in the evening we have an A la Cartè menu in the restaurant. Pre-booking is required for dinner and breakfast. The nearest other place to eat is Årrenjarka as mentioned above.
DEPOT BOX
You can send storage boxes to us. We always recommend sending with Bussgods because they deliver all the way to Kvikkjokk and write “Delivery to Kvikkjokk”. PostNord leaves many packages for delivery in Jokkmokk and we only have the opportunity to pick them up if we have other errands there, since we have 120 kilometers one way. We do not go extra to pick up packages.
We charge a fee of 30 SEK/day with a maximum of 300 SEK. This is because we have very little space for packages, and that we have to go and pick them up from the bus. It is free storage for guests.
BENEFITS
We offer free breakfast to those who book accommodation with us. When booking online, however, you must write White/Green Ribbon under “observations” so we know that they have breakfast!
OTHER
We have both showers, toilets and saunas to rent for a fee. Batteries can be charged in our lobby. We have no daily fee during high season, the guest pays for the shower and/or sauna at the reception (there are high and low seasons).

The restaurant is open on certain days during February-April and during July-August.
DEPOT BOX
It works well and we charge a service fee of 100 SEK/box for handling. Bussgods applies here and it is extra important NOT to write your own name as the recipient, because then the package will stop in Arjeplog (105 km).

OTHER
Stig Nilsson, or “Stig in Olden” was named Mountaineer’s Friend of the Year 2017 with the following motivation:
“A true loyal servant, who has selflessly served, helped, encouraged and kept an eye on many, many mountaineers over the years. I, like many other Green and White Banders, can attest that Stig Nilsson in Olden has shown fantastic hospitality that has been a very welcome feature on the trip. Stig keeps an eye on all of us Banders and invites those he can find, coffee, sandwiches and a nice chat in Olden’s village cottage. Many have also been offered overnight stays and have been given a much-needed opportunity to dry off and recharge their batteries after wet and cold bog adventures.”
In 2024, Stig also became the “All-Time Mountaineering Friend”, then with the following motivation:
With genuine warmth, care and generosity, Stig Nilsson has tirelessly helped, encouraged and brightened the journey for so many Banders over the years. A true loyal servant with a heart of gold who has become an icon for both mountaineers and the entire White & Green Band. Thank you very much, Stig! With us, it is easy to shower and sauna, wash clothes, charge batteries, dry tents and more because we have a dehumidifier and shoe dryer and in the gymnasium everything that is wet can be hung up for drying.

ACCOMMODATION/TENTS
There are various accommodation options here all year round.
EAT
The restaurant and café are only open during the season (current times can be found on the website). Lunch, dinner and coffee as well as waffles are available here.
DEPOT BOX
We can accept deposit boxes all year round, but they should only be sent via PostNord! It is important that there is NO personal name at the address, because then the package will end up in Idre. Please contact us in advance!
BENEFITS
We offer all Ribboners a waffle and coffee at the start or finish. In addition, we give a 100 SEK discount on the first night (camping/tent or room/cottage).
OTHER
Some Ribboners start before the season has started – don’t hesitate to get in touch! We live in Grövelsjön and are happy to help, especially during the off-season, when there aren’t many people there.
My experience is, above all, one of deep gratitude. Gratitude to myself for seizing this opportunity, to the mountains and nature to which I feel such a deep connection, and to all the kind and wonderful people I met along the way.
