There have been more accidents than usual in the entire mountain range and the Kiruna mountains stand out, according to Per-Olov Wikberg of the Mountain Safety Council.
There are a lot of international guests there, the most in the entire mountain range. It is also from Kebnekaise that most mountain rescue alarms come.
